FORMER Qantas stewardess Lisa Robertson says she has few regrets over the “mile-high” tryst in a business-class toilet with movie star Ralph Fiennes.

Ms Robertson, 38, was sacked by Qantas after news of the incident grabbed headlines around the world.

She told the Nine Network’s 60 Minutes program last night that despite all the flack, she would not change what had happened. “I would do it again … which probably sounds crazy but I would do it again.”

Entranced by the romantic images from Fiennes’s movie The English Patient, Ms Robertson said that when he kissed her on theplane she knew she couldn’t control herself.

“I wanted him to kiss me. You know, he’s one of the most gorgeous men in the world to me.”

Asked if she wanted something to happen between her and Fiennes, she replied: “Of course, I’d have to be insane not to.”

Now one of the world’s best-known former airline hostesses, Ms Robertson said she knew her conduct was silly, inappropriate and unprofessional.

But she was thrilled when she realised the passenger in seat 2K was her favourite movie star and she had been charmed when she had served him. “He was such a nice person … I melted,” she said. “We actually talked, he was very interested in me and I was very interested in him and we were like drawn, every moment.”

With most people asleep on board the long flight from Darwin to Mumbai last month, she said Fiennes had entered the crew area where she was resting and had started talking to her.

Asked how the pair had managed to have sex in the cramped confines of an airline toilet, she said she was on the sink and there were “arms, legs everywhere”.

However, she wanted to make the point that no one was hurt by the encounter. “I’m not excusing my actions for one moment … but we didn’t kill anyone, I didn’t hurt anyone, no other customers on the aircraft knew about this or were disturbed by this. I was on my break, it was an interaction that happened between two people.”

Asked to rate the actor as a lover, Ms Robertson said: “Excellent, very, very passionate, very caring. I rated him 10 out of 10 and that’s genuine … there was this chemistry between us and it was great.”

Ms Robertson acknowledged that the pair had unprotected sex in the toilet and she could be pregnant with Fiennes’s baby. She said she had felt abandoned and alone afterwards when the actor declined to go to her defence over her problems with Qantas.

But, clearly, the money she has made from selling her story has helped.

“It was worth it,” she said. “The only regrets I do have is the effect that this has had on my parents. They’re devastated, they’re embarrassed.”
