I'm with ya on the cane use 'like a tight line walker balance'. Thats me on stairs. In airports now, I need a wheel chair assist.

I have been using a cane for several years, and a rollator for about a
year. The cane can be good if one has a gimpy leg (e.g. knee surgery)
but questionable if the problem is balance (mine is balance, etc.).
Where we now live in a community of senior citizens, I get to see all
sorts of assistive devices. One that is intriguing to me is people
walking with two walking sticks that look almost like ski polls.

Next week I'll be in Pensacola FL all week, Wish me luck! Work
travel sucks now.

Luck to you and have a successful trip.
