Rafa Benitez will travel to Wales by helicopter on Sunday when his Newcastle team face Swansea at the Liberty Stadium.
The Magpies' boss has been hospitalised this week and was not able to fly to south Wales with his team on Saturday.
The Spaniard has been treated for an infection following a hernia operation.
Benitez, who lives on Merseyside, was unable to attend Newcastle's training ground this past week because of discomfort in his groin and led to his stay in hospital.
He will now make his way to Swansea in a helicopter for Sunday's game which kicks off at 4pm and is being broadcast live on Sky.
Meanwhile, owner Mike Ashley will donate £20m to the players if they win the FA Cup this season.
The Shields Gazette, recently reported that Newcastle's players had not yet reached an agreement over bonuses for the coming season.
The players have been in dispute with the club since the summer over bonus payments.
It is understood the squad were unhappy with this situation and had requested a meeting with managing director Lee Charnley, as well as Ashley, in a bid to attempt to resolve this issue.
As for the FA Cup, Newcastle last won the trophy in 1955 and in recent seasons the club have tended to field weaker teams in the competition.
