O.K. just a few facts....
Unlimited water was never the issue. It was a bottled water thing. There was an internal memo from a mid level manager published that said if the flight crew wanted a big bottle (1L) of water provisioned for them, they (the flight crew) would have to sign for it.
A stink was raised when the memo came out and higher authorities said please disregard said memo.
Another mid/low level manager apparently didn't get the dis-regard memo and called a captain in for a carpet dance when he had signed for additional water for the flight crew.
Another bigger stink was raised, and another memo from on high has been published saying please make sure you have the water you need for your flight Crew....
the saga hopefully is over now.
Not sure how that explanation makes the issue any less rediculous. The manager who wrote the first memo worked for Continental, right? Someone put that manager in a position to write such memos, correct? That's the culture they grow there... like the rest of the mold in Houston.
