Jade, the daughter of Rolling Stones singer Mick, was escorted into the first-class section of a Virgin Atlantic flight from London to New York as a guest of company owner Richard Branson.
She proceeded to get drunk and behave badly, and is even alleged to have kicked a flight attendant.
A passenger told the New York Post newspaper: "Jade was escorted onto the plane with two friends.
"They all proceeded to get drunk and loud and were falling down in the aisles, climbing over seats, pointing at people and talking about them aloud.
"They helped themselves to bottles of alcohol on the bar and generally disrupted the entire first-class section.
"Her male friend took the wine from another passenger's dinner tray and drank it - twice - and then made an off-color remark to the female and said, 'Your wine sucks anyway!'
"At one point, the captain even had to come out."
It is also alleged that Jade kicked a flight attendant who was trying to put up her seat-tray for landing.
The witness said: "Jade was kicking the flight attendant from under her duvet, not allowing the flight attendants to put her tray away because her feet were on it."
Jade's representative, Sara Forage, said: "Jade has a fear of flying and often has a drink before she boards a flight to calm her down. She was taken great care of by the cabin crew at Virgin Atlantic.
"While she had fun with her travelling companions, she did not realise that her talking and laughing would cause offence and regrets causing any disruption of which, until now, she was completely unaware.
"There was no climbing over seats. Nor did any falling down the aisles occur, and there was no visit from the captain or reprimand by cabin crew.
"As far as 'kicking an attendant,' she is utterly dismayed that anyone would even suggest such a thing."

Ha ha. Who really cares? Maybe Darfur or the plight of Britany Speers is more important to 'Life, the universe and everything'. Good luck to Virgin Atlantic, Jade and all the other passengers in first class. Cheers Howard
