Mums & Dads - Dubai airport help!

View, I was in my local morrisons today and they had the 100ml ready made bottles with teat attached.

I would just take some of the small liquid formula bottles or cartons and some pre-sterilised bottles (keep them closed and they'll be sterile until you open them).

Presumably the airline will warm a bottle for you? (although having said that DD2 was fine with room temperature milk).

Edit: Apols, now you've clarified, I can see that the problem is the size of the pre-made bottles.

Bottled water isn't clean (sterile) enough to make up baby formula.

Amazing how most bottle fed French babies manage to make it to 12 months then because most of them are raised on Evian or Volvic. When I was told about it when my babies were a couple of weeks, I stopped that boiling water business and did like our neighbours. Amazingly, they are now strong and healthy teenagers. I'm sure baby will survive one or two Evian milk bottles in their life!

Do you really think that the 3rd world can afford litres of safe bottled water!

Even adults with weakened immune systems should not drink bottled water, most will still have a superior immune system to a new born baby.

Just wondering whether they could help if you messaged them on their Facebook page.

What about medications or special foods in liquid form?

Exceptions are made for medications and special food (e.g., baby food and diet foods) that you may need during the flight. These articles may be carried outside the resealable plastic bag (see Luggage Regulations), but they must be separately inspected at the security check. In cases of doubt, our security staff may require you to prove that you require these products during the flight.

Why would you want to boil bottled water?

I don't! That's the whole point, I was asking if anyone had recent experience of taking pre-made shop bought sterile baby formula bottles through the airport.
