Can travel on cast.

Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
After the fracture if a proper aero cast is applied then you can travel. Do keep the leg elevated on a stool while traveling.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
