Boarding a flight with a frag

[bnord]

Am a covid restart and so no post 911 experience in the hobby
And now post covid am starting to do short business travel more.
In so doing I have been checking out Reef shops (Minneapolis, St Louis, Milwaukee etc) but reluctant to pick up and frags as I don't book luggage
What are the Forum's recommendations on getting though TSA successfully (or not)

Thanks

When I went to KC years ago, I found a frag that I couldn’t live without. The store helped me by boxing it with a heat pack. I then put it in my checked bag.

Maybe it needs to be a frag from TSA?
