While you carry a wrapped gift through airport security, you can bring one on the jet with you. Just wrap those Frozen dolls and Hatchimals right in the terminal.
Alton DuLaney, is known as the world's most famous giftwrap artist. He's also the curator of public art at the Houston airport system. He's been wrapping gifts at Houston's Bush Intercontinental for flyers to reduce stress and spread holiday cheer.
He says bring a role of tape. "It's all you need. And you can arrive at the airport and scavenge around at the Starbucks or at one of the newsstands and get a newspaper or a magazine or shopping bad and wrap a gift with it. And scotch gift wrap tape you can actually carry through security."Here's another trick; use a two part box, one with a lid and a base and wrap them separately. That way you can open the box and TSA can peek inside.
Another tip is instead of a gift bag, stuff the gift in a Christmas stocking.
