Repeat performance this morning, this time at the A terminal. And this time, I had plenty of time to argue and inquire and I was prepared to lose the nearly empty bottle I brought along specially.
Indeed, the limit has always been 100ml (well -- ever since liquids suddenly became dangerous), but contact lens solution has stopped being considered as a "medical exception" in the last month. I told them that it would be nice if they would announce this somewhere. Of course that will never happen.
From now on, I'll just carry my contact lens solution in my pockets where a metal detector has no chance of finding it. (Or find a 98ml bottle and the time to refill it in perpetuity).
*sigh*
