The Ryanair flight was bound for Ibiza, departing from Stansted Airport on Saturday when the incident occurred.
The men involved reportedly demanded more alcohol on the flight and when refused became angry and violent.
They had already been drinking beforehand, consuming lager and spirits before even boarding the flight.
They then became violent with the cabin crew when being refused.
A source told the MailOnlne: “One of the guys wanted to buy something extra and was a bit rude — the flight attendant was ignoring him.
“He went on demanding, and grabbed her by the arm asking to serve him.”
The plane was forced to divert to Bordeaux Airport in the south of France, where the rowdy passengers were met by police.
A video then shows them fighting with the police officers on the tarmac.
The video films the passengers as one of them throws his bag across the tarmac before fighting and being tackled by the police.
Ryanair told Express Online: “This flight from London Stansted to Ibiza diverted to Bordeaux after a number of passengers became disruptive inflight.
“The aircraft landed normally and the passengers were removed and detained by police upon arrival, before the aircraft continued to Ibiza.
“We will not tolerate unruly or disruptive behaviour at any time and the safety and comfort of our customers, crew and aircraft is our number one priority. This is now a matter for local police.”
