I’ve never come across water, or soft drinks, sold in 50ml, that’s a double measure in spirits. Mind you, if I could sell bankers, and other suckers, water at £47 a litre, I’d be very tempted. Much more lucrative than legal aid. i suspect 50ml is supposed to be 500ml 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They cannot even maintain the trolleys ..I've been to many so called 3rd world countries and have never seen trolleys in the condition we have.. The ones here are covered in rust..Wheels barely move and are in a terrible state . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asitis Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Cos it's cheaper to buy new stuff than it is to do any maintenance ! However someone has solved a problem , that's a first for the shitshow that is our airport ! 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinderella Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 11 hours ago, John Wright said: I’m not really sure how environmentally friendly or saving of resources a refillable water bottle is. Much more material and resources to make. Having to wash & sterilise. Emptying out before going through security before filling again airside? How many times is the average one used for before being lost, put to one side or consigned to the cupboard of things bought with good intentions and used once. Wouldn't a campaign for multiple chilled water drinking fountains in public buildings, and on the streets and promenades actually be better. Totally disagree. Most airports have one (or more) located after security (just have your empty water bottle as you go through or chug it quickly). Did 11 airports in my most recent trip - all had water bubbler after security except ….. Had my water bottle for number of years and thousands of refills. A lot of bottled water (and disposable bottles) I haven’t consumed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then sit in a shed for 3 years while DoI figures out where to put them etc, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piebaps Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 FFS I've heard it all now. Flights mainly a duration of 1 hour or less and the pampered few can't do without water. Lordy, what have we become? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
