Some airports have no place to refill and have only hot water in the toilet sinks. It's inhumane.
Which airport? I have never ever experienced this.
I can't remember which one it was. Maybe Munich?
Munich has refilling stations after security

Yeah … in their hot water toilet sinks. Gross!

This happened to me after a lunch break going back into the court room for jury duty. Didn't think about my soda until I got to the checkpoint, used to the TSA's mentality so figured the rest of it was forfeit. She just tells me to take a drink to show it's valid. Respect for people doing their job correctly, and using common sense.
