Totally illegal, but hey !
"Totally illegal", I don't know. There are dozens of places in a large airport terminal where they sell you as much alcohol as you want. Only a little sign next to the cash register tells you that your purchase must not be opened before you arrive at destination, usually in English language only. So yes, illegal maybe, but things that are "totally illegal" must be brought to people's attention a little better than that.
Mind you, I once sat next to a high ranking officer (in uniform) belonging to the armed forces of a very large country of the western hemisphere. During the flight he emptied a one litre duty free bottle of burbon by diluting the coke with it that they were serving him... No one dared tell him how totally illegal his action was! The worst about it was the he didn't offer me any...
