    Omg they have loaner canes? That’s somehow less of a risk than your regular cane?

      The loaner canes are wooden and known safe since TSA sourced them. Basic operational security

      They scan the passenger’s cane and then return it

        Oh. Haha. It sounded like they were giving them a loaner cane for the entire duration of the first leg of his trip. I’m dumb.
