Can anyone tell me whether either Gatwick (South, I think) or Luton provide
drinking water fountains once past security for outbound passengers?  I tend
to get through rather a lot of water during flights and would rather not pay
silly Easyjet prices onboard or in the shops.  I was ...

I am looking for a warm and cheap European city for a stopover in
March. (In other words, likes of Oslo, Paris, or Zurich have to wait
for a future visit! Cities like Cairo are too diffucult to accommodate
within reasonable airfare.)

Can I take my Albuterol in the cabin with me? (Proventil HFA)?  It's in
a box with my Rx info on it.  I couldn't find the info online.
Thanks!
