During en route stop, travelling as a passenger, deplanning at Stockholm's Arlanda Airport, upon entering transit lounge my half-full 1-liter bottle of water was taken away from me "because it contained more than 100ml." Now why would I have to surrender my water
coming off the airplane? [Upon exiting the sterile transit lounge 50 minutes later for the continuation of the flight, the same transit passengers again are made to pass through the same security checkpoint].
Oh, and yes, I am an airline pilot, but I can't understand the logic.
