Eyewitnesses said the scuffle was between two brothers, one of whom was angry that his brother had smoked on a plane.
One passenger interviewed by CNN affiliate WFOR said the fight left one of the men bloody.
"I saw the guy holding his head with the blood coming out," Mike Rocha said.
The jet was held at the North Carolina airport for about two hours while FBI investigators interviewed passengers.
