Hello Softato, will this be a domestic or international flight and are you talking about when you are departing the airport or arriving?
A few trips ago I had a fall in Italy and two days later when flying home I had a swollen knee. KLM had a wheelchair service meet me as I could not walk without serious pain.
The attendant got me through immigration and customs and to the area where I was to catch the shuttle bus to get me to the city where my daughter was to pick me up. I tipped him $20.00. Too much? I don't know but this dear man was worth every penny.
