"Dear @airtransat What more can I say? As if it was not enough to find fresh blood on the seat in front of me, one of your flight attendants provided me with disinfectant wipes to wipe it off with my bare hands.

Next time, feel free to call on me to help you clean the entire plane so this never happens again," wrote X user @birgitomo as she shared about the incident.
