One recent flight charged $4.50 for a glass of water--you had to buy the bottle--no free drinks on Spirit Airlines. BTW they had no "spirit".

The airlines have been charging for the dogs to fly under the seats for a long time--it is a money maker for them.

I've heard that some airlines have done away with pillows and blankets--you have to buy them before you board the plane from airport kiosks.

Here's what I do for water. I take an empty bottle through security and then fill it up in the water fountain on the other side before I board. I've done this eight times, even when flying international, and have never had a problem.
