The fracas allegedly ensued when Koosmann stood up to use the bathroom shortly after take off and was told to return to her seat by a member of cabin crew.
Delta said the couple became "agressive" and caused a disruption which force the crew to turn the plane around.
Less than an hour after take-off from Minneapolis, Minnesota, the flight returned to the travel hub where the troublesome pair were arrested.

Her behaviour resulted in the police wrestling her to the ground to subdue her - much to the delight of other passengers.
It has also been revealed that Fleisig is a Vice President of Internal Audit Treasury Finance at Citi Bank.
Pat Hogan, of the Metropolitan Airports Commission, confirmed the man and woman had been 'disruptive' during the flight, reports .
Hogan added that the FBI was investigating the incident as it is unclear in what state the mid-air trouble occurred in.
The flight was reportedly able to resume its journey to Los Angeles, California after the couple were kicked off.
