I take no pleasure in doing this however, it needs to be done. I'm not sure if this is the only airport that's this strict concerning passengers bringing their own water through security and I say this with great displeasure and disappointment. The last time I flew out of Goose Bay this was not an issue plus the departure location did not have this regulation in place, currently. I need cold water for medical reasons and would have had a letter stating such but I was informed that this would not help. I was told that there's water available inside and my ice water must be disposed of. Which I complied after questioning appropriately, considering my circumstances. It gets awful hot on those flights and my medical condition is alleviated somewhat with the help of ice water. Something as simple as cold water. The water from the water station that I was instructed to use was not fit for consumption and I bought a bottle of water as soon as I saw that there was some to my right. No ice though. Consideration should be taken for those who are dealing with issues that require such small details and a letter to confirm perhaps would have been helpful however, I was told in no uncertain terms that a medical letter of such type would not help me and my current situation. I had to dispose of my ice water before proceeding through security. Other than that, everything is peachy. MPH
