May be someone should buy a bottle of water from the sterile area and DRINK it while boarding to see if it's allowed. May be the GA, FA and other NW crew are going by the rules of the baby formula where the person carrying the baby formula could be asked to drink it to show it's not harmful.

Could it be that since the FAs and Pilots can do this the whole point of the ban has already been defeated???? Maybe the FAs and Pilots are SMARTER then the TSA (that wouldn't be hard!)
