I think I would be looking for more compensation than a couple of blankets.

On the one hand, disgusting.

On the other hand, I'm not surprised.

I've seen people take off their shoes and sit barefoot (no socks, either) on the carpet - do they not think of what was there before?

Why the hell are there even carpets in airplanes? Give me a nice shiny surface that can be easily wiped with a mop between flights any day (though that would probably never happen anyway), like the sort of floors hospitals or cleanrooms/graded areas have.
