Write a letter to the airport flight manager about missing a business trip due to an accident that happened at the airport. Explain

Dear Sir,
My name is XYZ and I am writing this letter to inform you about a business trip that I could not go on, as I could not board the flight number DXB129, because of an accident that occurred at the airport, last monday.
Last monday, on 20th October, I had to board the flight DXB129 from New Delhi to Dubai at 11:30 pm. I reached the airport well in time because I had not checked in online. As I was walking from the parking lot to the entry door, my foot tripped and I fell sideways as someone had spilled some water there. I tried to get up but I couldn’t. I realised I had sprained my ankle. Some kind personals who were present there helped me get up and took me to the pharmacy for some first aid. I got a crepe bandage and some anti- inflammatory pills. I then went inside to wait in the waiting lounge. My foot started swelling and I decided to cancel my trip.
I had a business meeting in Dubai which was a very important one. However, when I called and told them about my predicament, they were kind enough to postpone the meeting for one week.
I hope you will be kind enough to accommodate me on the next Monday flight DXB129 at 11:30 pm and also give me some concession on the ticket. I am also a member of your frequent flyer programme. I would be very grateful to you for this kind gesture.
Hoping to hear from you soon!
Yours faithfully,
XYZ.
