You might want to check TSA's list twice this holiday season before wrapping your presents since security officers could open your gifts before you arrive to your destination.
"In the event that there is an alarm that needs to be resolved in checked or carry-on bags, TSA advises passengers not to wrap gifts prior to their flights," a TSA spokesperson told Fox News Digital via email. Sydney Borchers is a lifestyle production assistant with Fox News Digital.
"When there is an alarm that must be resolved, often the only way that a Transportation Security Officer (TSO) has available is to see the item that caused the alarm. If a package is wrapped, then the TSO must unwrap it for inspection," the spokesperson added.
