The pilot has assessed that it is so serious that we must get rid of this person, says Adam Györki, communications manager at TUI, to Expressen.
According to Aftonbladet a woman attacked other passengers and caused "chaos".
It became dangerous for everyone, for both the plane's and the passengers' safety, says a passenger to the newspaper.
A woman is said to have been hit by a heavy blow to the head and was picked up by an ambulance at the airport, according to Aftonbladet.
The travelers will be forced to spend the night in Santiago de Compostela because, among other things, it took time to find the troublesome passenger's and their company's baggage. Planes that land with a full tank also need to follow certain safety regulations before they can take off again.
The flight was scheduled to arrive in Gothenburg at 20.20 on Wednesday.
The violent woman was arrested when she left the plane, according to witnesses.
