"I'm trying to apologise. You're throwing it back in my face.
The woman appears to push members of the flight crew and yells: "Get off, get the f*** off. What are you doing to me?"
A man then interjects: "Leave her alone. Don't f***ing touch me. Leave her alone!"
A Jetstar spokeswoman told news.com.au the passenger and their travelling party were denied entry to Bali when the plane arrived, and they were sent back to Australia.
The passengers have been banned from flying with Jetstar and Qantas while the incident is investigated.
"A passenger on a flight from Sydney to Bali on Monday night was disruptive and aggressive towards our crew members and was making the flight uncomfortable and unpleasant for other passengers on board," the spokeswoman said.
"Our crew on board handled this situation very professionally and according to their training. They've requested local airport security and police to meet the aircraft on arrival into Bali.
"The disruptive customer and their travelling party were denied entry to Bali and returned today to Australia.

"We take safety and security seriously and this type of behaviour will not be tolerated on our aircraft."
The spokeswoman added: "While we conduct a review, they have been given an interim ban from travelling with us."
The ban includes flights with Jetstar and Qantas, the spokeswoman said.
