You can bring a water bottle on a plane, but it must be empty when you go through security. There's no limit on the size of the bottle itself, but any liquid must follow the TSA's 3-1-1 rule, which means containers must not exceed 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). After passing through security, you can refill your bottle at a water fountain or purchase a drink.
