Shocking footage shows the moment one irritated passenger rants at staff on a Jet2 flight from Manchester to Turkey before she is escorted off the plane.
The young woman was seen screaming while pacing up and down the flight and reportedly slapped other passengers before the flight had to be diverted. The plane was headed to Antalya and left Manchester Airport at around 9.15am on Monday, with the flight usually lasting four and half hours.
But it was diverted to Vienna after the woman disrupted the flight and allegedly attacked other passengers. The flight had to land at Vienna almost two and a half hours in at around 11.40am before the woman was arrested and taken off the plane. It then set off to Antalya at 1pm, Yorkshire Live reports.

A video of the disruptive passenger, reported to be from Kirkless in Yorkshire, has now emerged showing her shouting at uniformed staff on the flight. A member of staff can be seen in the footage telling her to "stand back" to which she replies: "I am back. Sort your head out you."
The airline worker replies: "You are not doing yourself any favours." She replies: "Your'e not doing yourself any favours either. So what have I done? Don't touch me, don't ****ing touch me."
She adds: "What have I done? What have I done wrong on this flight, eh? See, you haven't got an answer."
A man in the background can be seen shaking his head at the woman's behaviour. Another clip of the incident shows the moment armed police officers escort the woman off the plane.
The passenger can be heard to shout: "Wait til you get the bill love." Others are shouting "bye bye" as the woman is led away by armed officers.
