But once inside the airport terminal, we can always buy some water and no one will check anymore if you bring the water inside the plane.
In: 974
Former TSA agent here, you have to surrender your water because bad people pretend to bring water on board but it actually an explosive and they use it to kill everybody on board while its in mid-flight. My favorite explanation is that they pour a flammable liquid on toilet paper, and due to nature of airplanes and PRESSURIZED AIR, this method would turn the whole passenger cabin into a inferno in a moment and if somehow you don’t die from fire the smoke will choke you to death like it does to the pilots. This is a thing they have done.
We do not allow people to prove its water by taking a sip because it doesn’t magically prove your water is water and the reason being is because if we allowed water on board this way the bad people would bring “disposable people” along with them to drink it so the main baddie can continue the mission. This ALSO something the bad people have done.
I hope this explanation sooths your frustration in navigating thru a checkpoint. Happy travels.
