if he still has cast on when due to fly the answer will probably be NO this is due to pressure causing leg to swell inside cast. you may need to get hospital to open cast and use tape to secure while on hols airtours allow this method, same prob happened to hubby and this is the advise the airline gave us then so please check b4 you go,he will be able to get travel insurance try "more than" and make sure you tell them about his leg as they will cover this also
hope everything goes well :)

In Tenerife you can certainly do any such thing you feel like any day of the year thanks to its climate, organic environments and tourist infrastructure made for fun for all your household which means this place is the right area for a great vacation and with hotelbye you are certain to get it. In Tenerife are a lot of points waiting for you really to learn and one of those is in the south west coast of Tenerife. A location that's a spectacular position for watching whales free in the ocean. As much as 26 species are observed just off the coast, including baleen whales, monster whales, dolphins, pilot whales and also blue whales. In Tenerife you will even see The Teide National Park. At 3,718 metres, Teide volcano is Spain's best maximum and its two ecosystems produce the climb an experience filled with contrasts.

He will be able to fly. Best to let the airline know as some can request medical seats so that he can have extra leg room. Usually if people are in plaster the airline recommend you to get it split to allow for swelling due to cabin pressure and also due to the heat when he's on holiday. Just for him to be more comfortable.

Why wouldn't they? Is there danger of a blood clot due to the accident? Ask his doctor. If anything, he might be able to get a wheelchair and assistance to board early.
The only thing he will not be covered for with travel insurance is "pre existing" conditions. That means he can not cancel for any reason related to his ankle.
Other than that. Sure! No problem.
You need a travel agent. Find a good one and treat them like gold.

I don't know why they wouldn't let him fly. As long as he can get on and off the plane there shouldn't be a problem. What you need to do is get assistance for him at the airport so he doesn't have to walk to and from the gates. Call the airlines to see what they offer. They have little golf carts that can drive him to the gate so he doesn't have to walk a long way.

You can fly on an airplane while on crutches. No problem. Just let the airline know you will be needing special assistance at boarding & deplaning time. They will let you board first and should offer travel assistance to & from the gate (those little motorized transport carts that they drive people around in).

I presently have a broke ankle, and I've called the airlines here in Baton Rouge about this. Yes, by law they must accomodate. Wish him a happy holiday!

Yes you can still fly by all airlines you just need to have all your paper work with you to prove that it is going to heal and it is all currect and another way to keep Travel Insurance down would be just to go to a Hosptial befoure the return jurney home to get them to write on paper that you are safe for the resturing flight

Friend of mine wasn't allowed to fly when cast was removed day before he was due to fly in case of dvt. Best ask consultant for advice during treatment. Sorry not sure about insurance.
