- READ MORE: Billionaire Adrian Portelli is all smiles as he destroys My Reno Rules bathroom with a sledgehammer
Adrian Portelli was getting the royal treatment on Tuesday.
The billionaire jetted out of the Gold Coast after attending a buck’s party, but ensured he had minders on hand to carry his belongings as he boarded the jet.
The 37-year-old enlisted a staffer to hold a sizeable umbrella over his head to shield him from the rain.
While Adrian appeared to have his laptop on hand, he refused to carry his own suitcase, with another staffer carting it along for him.
Adrian could be seen strolling along in a relaxed manner while a burly man carried his large, silver carry-on case.
The businessman was dressed casually for the short flight, donning a white shirt and black track pants.

Last month, Portelli announced that he has slashed the price of fuel at his new Melbourne petrol station.
The Australian billionaire launched the LMCT+ petrol station in Preston in April, selling unleaded petrol for just 99 cents per litre.
He shortly after announced that he had since cut the price to just 49 cents per litre.
Portelli took to Instagram to share a video that showed him kicking the price sign before the display changed to 49.99.
Sporting a cheeky grin, Adrian declared: ‘F*** the system,’ before striding out of frame.
In a subsequent clip, Portelli joked that he had, in fact, increased the price before taking a dig at critics of his ambitious venture.
‘Okay, okay, okay, I promise this time I have increased the price today,’ he said, before turning the camera to reveal the price sign now reading 49.99.
‘Go and get f***ed, 49 cents,’ he said.
‘You know what? F*** you all – 49 cents, come and get it.’

Portelli’s discount announcement was met with a chorus of excited approval from his 1.2 million Instagram followers.
‘Here is a fun fact. Petrol in Australia hasn’t been 49.9 cents since around 1985,’ he said.
‘When you take into account inflation, that’s more around the dollar mark. So, it’s fair to say that petrol has never been sold in Australia this cheap ever before.
‘So, I don’t know what to say now. Just come and get cheap fuel.’
Portelli officially opened the first of his chain of petrol stations last month.
He was mobbed by fans for several hours at the event, which culminated in one of his infamous giveaways of a jaw-dropping $1 million.
