Wrap your presents at the airport

Published 11:03 am Friday, December 12, 2014

You’ve meticulously wrapped gifts for relatives with that cool new method you found on YouTube — and then you reach security at the airport.

Sea-Tac Airport warns travelers that security may have to open wrapped gifts. So consider wrapping the Elsa doll and 5-pound fruitcake at a special gift-wrapping station post-security. Volunteers from USO Northwest will be in the central terminal 6 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Dec. 16-24. Donations are welcome.
