***edited to add*** note that the liquids restrictions are enforced at the gate, so your more-than-100ml liquid gotta go.
The 'not being able to bring your own water onboard' for some flights to the USA infuriates me, especially when they never pack enough on the plane. That and the fact they've already gone through your suitcase at security that's no different than what you get in the US.
