Rowland launched a verbal assault on the hosties as she walked through the domestic terminal, having just disembarked from flight QF430 from Melbourne.
The former Destiny's Child singer claimed she and her entourage had been treated like children on the flight, which landed about 1.40pm, and vowed to complain about the service, calling it "s****y".
It is thought the incident was sparked by some passengers using mobile phones on board and others sitting in the wrong seats.
"I found the flight attendants really shitty. I don't know why. You tell me," Rowland said.
"They were very rude to us. That's the first time you'll ever hear me say a curse word. They were just rude to us on the plane. They treated us like five-year-old kids."
Asked what sparked the incident she said, "I don't know. Every time I've flown Qantas it's always been fantastic. It was rather unpleasant."
Rowland is in town for last night's Supafest gig at Acer Arena, (reports The Daily Telegraph).
Fellow headliners Akon, Eve and Sean Paul were also on the plane but are not believed to have been involved in the incident.
A Qantas spokesman said it was important that all passengers followed the crew's instructions.
