Broken Bicycle

I knew that the rear wheel was damaged but when I got to my local bike shop this morning for an examination, it was immediately noticed that the front forks were out of alignment (explaining the stiff front wheel) and the guy was unsure about how straight the frame was as well.  I should know the full extent of teh damage within a day or two but it is looking as if a complete new frame may be required.  I don't think Air France will be too happy about that so if anyone has any experience of these things, I would be grateful for any assistance.
