Broken Foot

you should get wheelchair from the airport door till the aircraft door.
good airlines will give you assistance.
if your foot is in a plaster it may need to be split (bivalved), this is due to the fact that your foot will swell inflight.
Many airlines will not accept you without it.
the best way for assistance is get your doctor to fill the airline MEDA form, you are assured of wheelchair assistance, baggage assistance etc
