Hope your husband is doing better. On a recent trip, I had to get wheelchair assistance for mother and it was an eye opener into what really is involved. There was no jumping of lines. In fact, we first had to wait an hour for a wheelchair. Then security would only allow two wheelchairs through at a time, so we had to wait another 30 minutes for the wheelchair to get through. And that was just to get through security. And believe me anyone that didn't have to be behind her walking up the jetway was glad she had wheelchair assistance.
