FWIW we always boiled the water - at least up to 6 months. For flying we buy purified water (no added electrolytes, not spring water etc) - aquafina is good, or nestle pure life

+1 to boiling! I’m not sure we did it for 6 months (we prob should have) but definitely the first few months. I’d usually just boil a big amount of water at night before bed and put it in a large thermos that we had sterilized. That would also keep it warm for intermittent bottle feedings in the middle of the night.
