Fantasiax you should also contact your airline to find out exactly what thier protocol is regarding casts as it can vary. They should be able to tell you if you need a fit to fly letter or not as well.

I've got no experience in this area thankfully, apart from the usual worrying that it might happen to us one day! Closest we've come so far was with flights booked New Years Eve. Baby born mid October. In our preliminary conversations about options, they said the pregnancy was apparently a "pre existing condition". We got to travel so fingers crossed for your party.
As well as those thinking poor kid for his physical suffering, I'll add sympathy for his mental state as he's also going to get a right ear bashing from the adults reminding him every 30 seconds to be careful. Also when considering a waterproof cover, remember you might be dealing with sudden rain storms, so bear that in mind as well as things like showering/swimming. You might want something that's pretty much permanent.

You wont know till after the surgery but generally speaking I have travelled to wdw with someone with a broken arm and pins before years ago and it was ok they just had to tell the drs to loosten the cast (to allow for swelling in the plane) and they had a blast! There is still lots to do!

my daughter broke her arm four days before we went to Ibiza, both bones and they had to be pinned, the plastic bag contraption thing leaked and her pins got infected. it was hot and itchy too.
I presume most rides would be out of the question ? If it was me with hindsight if its not too expensive I'd delay unless there are no pins |

You need to speak to both insurance companies in case the worst happens and you can't go. It may be that the other party have no recompense as they are not on your policy. Although you may be able to recover your part of the payment and pass it on to them to cover the whole cost

I broke my wrist while in Florida . It was a bad break and needed an operation to straighten and put a plate in - if they do that then a cast is not put on - it's put in a removable splint - the day after my op I had a fit to fly certificate. It can be done and there are lots of rides I still went on - just not the big ones. It's the waterparks that are the biggest pain as you can't go on anything there! Hope you get sorted out!
