You would perhaps like video proof?
Are you a shill for the airline?

SLC is in the middle of a very dry desert. When there is not enough water at the airport to go around, we make sure that Delta gets what it wants. The other airlines can then fight for what's left.

Wow, I thought this had been banned following all those reports about the horrific germs living in aircraft water tanks. I can see boiling the water for coffee, and using it in lavs for handwashing (with the warning about not drinking), but as far as I recall aircraft water storage was deemed not fit for human consumption. Maybe we should be bringing filtration devices onboard with our copious hand luggage allowances (another elite benefit---or fee based amenity?)
