THIS is the moment a drunk Delta Air Lines passenger refused to get off a flight – forcing the whole plane to disembark in order for cops to carry her off.
Body-cam footage shows police officers’ repeated attempts to get the woman, stubbornly seated on the plane, to cooperate.

In the shocking video shared by police, the passenger, named Alicia, can be seen refusing to budge from her seat on a flight scheduled to travel from Dallas to Boston on April 14.
After repeated warnings, officers resort to physically removing her from the plane.
Alicia can be heard saying: “I do not trust this state and I’m trying to go home. So do not hold me here.”
The officer responds: “You need to stand up and get off the airplane, ma’am.”
She says: “No, I don’t.”
Frustrated passengers are then seen disembarking the plane to allow officers’ to handcuff her.
As she is being handcuffed, Alicia says in a more emotional tone: “Why would you do that? Why would you do that?
“All I was trying to do is f**king fly home?””
A flight attendant told police that Alicia had a glass of prosecco and two shots of tequila while on board.
Alicia later admitted that while waiting for her delayed flight, she had six glasses of wine.

When she is escorted by police through the terminal, angry passengers in the terminal – who had been forced off the plane – booed her.
At the exit of the airport, police can even be seen carrying her as she tries to resist.
Outside the airport, the intoxicated passenger is seen refusing checks for weapons before being placed in a squad car.
She was reportedly arrested for criminal trespassing and public intoxication.
It comes as Delta Air Lines passengers had to evacuate a plane by the emergency slides during a scary landing at an airport in Atlanta.
The Boeing 717-200 was going to Columbia Metropolitan Airport in South Carolina when smoke suddenly filled the plane cabin.
The Delta flight was en route from Atlanta to South Carolina when it had to turn around.
Once the plane landed, all 94 passengers, two pilots and three flight attendants were forced to escape the aircraft using the emergency exit slides.
Shocking photos showed passengers standing on the left wing of the plane clutching onto their belongings.
