They would probably find out the earlier flight to Scotland, Bates & Anthony and Caroline & Jen would likely U-Turn Roller Derby and YouTube. They would probably get lost on penultimate leg but still could beat Caroline & Jen to the pit stop.

Yes, they did. They left the airport first and IIRC arrive in the middle of the pack.

What if Joey and Meghan hadn't arrived to the pit stop by the time Chuck and Wynona's penalty finished in Switzerland?

What if Bates and Anthony chose not to use the Fast Forward, and race normally?
Pam & Winnie might take the Fast Forward, Max & Katie eliminated. Pam & Winnie would likely go to the F3.
how do u figure  that?

cuz mona and beth got soo lost driving the autobahn.. and pam and winnie arent that strong navigators... so they probably faced a foot race against hockey and derby...  which  they would come last on that non elim.. and who knows how long the speed bump would have taken winnie and pam

Yeah, except that Pam and Winnie are flight goddesses and get on the earlier flight and save themselves.

Pam & Winnie were horrible with directions. And who cares if they can get flights? Anyone can figure out how to do flights if they're smart enough (i.e. almost every team this season)

Yeah but the majority of them aren't smart enough, and besides, I have no clue how you got to the assumption that the majority of teams this season were good at flights. Ultimately only Pam & Winnie were, with Maxie being a close second. And besides, flights give you more of a buffer zone than if you can navigate well.

Bates & Anthony, Dave & Connor, Chuck & Wynona, Mona & Beth were all good at getting flights as well. Being able to find a flight doesn't make you all that special.

Yeah I know it doesn't. Anyone can find a flight, but actually getting a flight that puts you ahead of the competition is very hard to do. The only other team like this is Charla & Mirna.

No. Pam & Winnie screwed up on two tasks: Jetskis and Botswana Detour. I can name lots of other teams who screwed up on many more tasks than that.

Let's not forget that Pam & Winnie did not get lost with directions in Botswana, IIRC, so they are not terrible with directions. Let's also not forget that every single team in the Final 4 has gotten messed up by directions in self driving.

Going back to the stem of the debate, Pam & Winnie would survive the Scotland leg because of catching a better flight than Mona & Beth and Joey Meghan, giving them a 2 hour and 33 minute lead. IIRC, no teams got lost navigating in Scotland (or at least not aired), so I don't believe Pam & Winnie would have blown the lead especially if they don't get U-Turned, thus moving onto the Final 3 as originally presumed.

And FYI, Pam & Winnie only blew a 30 minute lead in New Zealand when they were on the flight by themselves.

my point is this if pam and winnie got lost and was in the 3 way foot race between derby and hockey odds are they would be  last on the NEL leg... so we dont know how they would have played skittles (or w.e. its called)  thus they could have been uturned and thus have them been out.. or better yet even if they would have gotten on that earlier flight... they still would get lost.. then that speed bump.. might not make it past geremany
