I know there are restrictions on liquids, like water bottles, toothpaste

bring through security.

As long as you buy the soda in one of the food concession stands after
you pass through the security gates, it is no problem.

At Manchester Airport in the Duty free section shop they have small
bottles of wine for sale, a notice is also on display that states
they are not for consumption aboard the plane!

why the **** not ?!
