EU to lift flight ban on carry-on liquids

FAIL

You can already take duty free's on board.

You can already take duty free liquids on board if your flight is in Europe and you purchased them at the airport after security.

Excerpt from the BA website -

"You can purchase duty-free liquids at the airport or on board if your journey is wholly within the EU."

Do you really think that the airport operators would have allowed this to be banned? It would have meant most of the airports in Europe going bankrupt. These days it seems that airport design is focussed solely on making sure you pass the maximum number of shops on your way to the gate.
