I work at Sydney Intl airport and though I wasn't at work today, just msged my manager and asked about it:

"I was approached by a couple. I bought a street directory of them for 10 bucks so they could eat"

"Older looking man with a blonde girl"

So definitely Gary and Mallory

This video is by a SurvivorSucks Member called Charity00, she tried to film Ron and Christina but was stopped by production. Ron and Christina were seen leaving Central Station in Sydney.

Look at the backpacks and the height difference. Ron has a blue backpack and Xtina has a red backpack, which corresponds to the previous pictures taken.

Edit: Question to Charity00, did Ron and Christina survived first leg?
They ran past Charity and said thanks to him.

hey guys!  I'd found this tweet from twitter by the name of hilmansiwabessy and this is related to TAR 18!  And yes, they're racing in Tokyo, Japan already after Australia and I also need a translation on what she'd said and I think she speak Malay or Indonesian, and this is what she'd said:

Ini tolol banget deh peserta Amazing Race, masa dibilang 'Tokyo is a country in europe' hahaha tolski.

hey, who'll do you think gonna said that?  I think that will be the title episode of TAR 18 for the Tokyo leg!

Current flight status:

QF21.....in the air and expected arrival is ~45 min early at this time @ 0530 Toyko time. Current time in Toyko is 2334. So ~ 6 hours left on this flight.
CX524... awaiting takeoff in Hong Kong in ~2 hours, 40 minutes from now. flight is ~4 hours.

Hi, I'm long time active reader only in this forum.. Really amazed with your forum make me hooked!!

 just wanna help to translate the sentence from the twitter.. It's in Bahasa Indonesia.. (And from the name, I bet He's also Indonesian :p)
The sentence meant: "This is so dumb.. The racer of Amazing Race said  " Tokyo is a Country in Europe" Hahaha.. So Dumb!! :p

So can confirm that they're racing in Tokyo..

Flights status.......

QF 21.....direct from Sydney to Toyko is ~2 hours and 54 minutes from touchdown at Narita International. Flight is anticipated to land at 0540.

CX524.......from my usual sources......2 different flight tracking services.........has not taken off yet and is ~35 minutes delayed so far. This is the Hong Kong to Narita flight.
This flight finally showed up on one source............delayed ~  18 minutes at takeoff, but anticipated arrival is 0551 in Toyko

I think Peach's Chateau's rule of direct flights might bite some teams in the hiney.

[dojima]

It looks like both are arriving at terminal 2. I've been through Narita several times and terminal 2 is QUICK. Chances are the teams from both flights won't even see each other.

[kenchan]

Here are the links to track the flights:

CX524 --> http://www.flightstats.com/go/FlightStatus/flightStatusByFlight.do?id=210016261&airlineCode=CX&flightNumber=524

QF21 --> http://www.flightstats.com/go/FlightStatus/flightStatusByFlight.do?id=209953738&airlineCode=QF&flightNumber=21


Now, if this is all on target, the teams will be arriving at Narita in just a few hours, but Phil must have already arrived in Japan the evening before - if you remember from the Muscat, Oman leg in TAR17, in the CBS extras videos, Phil was telling Nat/Kat that the flight flying over their head was the flight he was supposed to be on (to go to Dhaka).   So as the last team checks in at the previous pitstop and finishes their mat-chat, Phil and crew are on their way to the next destination.

It's still 3:36AM in Tokyo right now, so probably too early for a Phil sighting, but it would be really interesting if Japanese fans can post a few witness shots of him! (Especially since TAR reruns have been airing on AXN Japan, and the Mixi fan group for the AXN version has 500 members in it, I know there is a following there. I posted this info on the Mixi fan group for the US-version of TAR, and there are many excited souls in the land of the Rising Sun!)

QF21............anticipated gate arrival @ 0539
CX524..........anticipated gate arrival @ 0650

[georgiapeach]

In the interest of keeping the chatter to a minimum, let's let DrRox post the arr info, okay?

kenchan! That is very helpful!

We can discuss today here:
http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,23693.0.html

As always, from this point on, LIVE sightings only please!

[DrRox]

QF21 is about 45 minutes to landing, still at the gate at 0539

CX524.......no change in status of flight...anticipated arrival is still 0650 Toyko time.

I can't speak japanies, but according to google automatic translator this means:
I come to Japan and Amazing Race participants today. Now go to Narita Airport ...

Maybe this will help.

[georgiapeach]

I tweeted to her back in Japanese, asking her who did she see? In her tweet, she was saying that she is going to Narita Airport to spot the contestants....
