A case of molestation was registered at the IGI airport police station and the man was arrested but later granted bail, they said.
The incident occurred on flight AI-102, which took off from New York's JFK Airport on Sunday, when the man, who was already inebriated, demanded more drinks and asked the airhostess to get it immediately.
