A350 contaminated water
Apparently, extra bottles of water are being loaded onto a350 flights due to some contamination issue in the water tanks.

Maybe the water source (lead-based)?

I'm pretty sure hygiene issues are not related to age vs how well tanks are cleaned.

No matter what, having so much Evian instead of Bonaqua is a quantum leap.

Since CX had been reported with contaminated water, I haven't been drinking their water since. Not even drinks that requires water to be made like cup o noodle, tea, milk tea, coffee, etc..
Now I hate the restriction to bring your own water for flights to US. I smuggle on every flight to US and by god I pray I won't be caught.
