Queen Máxima accompanied her daughter in the helicopter to the hospital, while King Willem-Alexander followed by car. From Lech am Voralberg to Feldkirch is 60 kilometres. Although the Government Information Service (RVD) will not disclose who is staying with Alexia, it is generally assumed Queen Máxima stayed behind to support her.
