I was told that I could purchase water after I cleared security and customs at Mannings inside the airport and that I could bring it on the plane. I was traveling to the US and the United agent at check in said I'd have to go through additional security at the gate b/c it was a US bound flight. She told me to tell the United gate agent that I needed the distilled water. I went through customs then bought water from Mannings but they didn't have distilled water, only spring water. Nevertheless, it was confiscated at the gate and I was told that there was purified water on the flight. I made a big stink about it but they would not let me in with it. So I definitely don't recommend premixing your formula before going through in case you have to throw it out. I don't think you'll have to go through additional security since you are going to Australia but you won't be allowed to bring water in through the main security checkpoint at all so don't even try it.
