Airport chaos!!!

I totally hear you on the water thing ... if its a choice between handing over the water or having people die, well heres my bottle, my handshake and my thank you for not getting my (or anyone elses) self blown up.

Having said that (and my previous post sounding a little trite/insensitive on the matter - funny how things you post on forums etc. tend not to come across the way they sounded to you, after you go back and read them again) I hope that after this initial stoppage of drinks etc. has been ironed out, a happy middle ground can be found to allow travellers to either purchase airport-approved beverages once theyve cleared customs/baggage check (like from the Gateway vendors past customs like i mentioned above), or to provide more drinks on the flights.

Also, how does this affect water or such provided to pets who are flying too? I'm really not sure about the general airline restrictions on pets-on-planes, but if you've provided a water bottle or misc. for their comfort, I guess this would be stopped too?

I remember they used to make you take a drink from the bottle if you had something like pop or juice or water. Maybe they will go back to that system after this immediate threat dies down.

I always find the same thing with my posts. I always think "how did they get that out of my post" then i reread it and it sounds totally different lol.

I don't know if it's only carry on you can't have liquid bottles or if it's everything. I would imagine there is some exception for pets.
