LONDON - A British stockbroker returning to London yesterday from an Easter shopping trip to New York found himself, in first class with 17 flight attendants at his beck and call because he was the only passenger on board.

The BA 747 was delayed by an electrical fault and all the passengers except Mr Stuart Pike switched to another flight. "I wasn't in any hurry and didn't mind hanging around so I thought I'd wait," he said.
