But it turned out that passengers were not allowed to take so much liquid into the cabin and were asked to throw them away at the security check by the airport staff. In order not to waste the drinks, the two passengers sat there and drank them before boarding. Take this lesson and do not bring too much liquid for a fly. Actually, one doesn’t need to bring any drink at all. They are all available on the plane.

Wan, this is the rule. The quantity is not the problem but the weight indeed is. Otherwise, the airline needn't require the passengers to bring luggage under the limit.

I can bring as many bottle of drinks I can carry on flight as long as I purchase from the shops in the departure hall, but of course the price is very steep. That's why I said it defeats the purpose of prohibiting to bring liquid more than 100ml of each bottle of not more than 1000ml.

I was once not allowed to bring in my luggage because it has 1000 litres of extra virgin olive oil. The security officer explained to me, if the bottle breaks it would cause somethings hazardous to the aircraft but I was allowed to bring in a few bottles of mineral water. I brought along the water because we would arrive past midnight and probably not easy to find grocery stores that were still opened. We plan to move direct to Shunde with a van that we have booked. For cargo people can bring in water as per allowed, and if using AirAsia, a maximum of 40kg per passenger, and each luggage the weight must not be more than 32kg.

PS: These two passengers also bring some milk and water. After drinking 16 bottles of coke, they are very full and couldn't drink milk and water up.

For some airlines, outside food are not allowed to consume on flight, so need to keep in your bag and put in the overhead compartment until you arrive at your destination. Wan

From my experience in some domestic flights they never disallowed me taking 1 bottle of mineral water. I experienced one time on my flight from Shenzhen to Xiamen, the security officer asked me to throw away the water even less than 100ml in my water flask. Wan
