The lady who blue M/M team ask to looks like from China Airlines

[Cocoa]

I'm flying back to Manila in June 6!

[redwings8831]

From LAX info:

Teams are on two flights:

TPE Taipei CI 7  China Airlines 1:15 AM  T-B 
 
TPE Taipei BR 15  EVA Air 1:35 AM    T-B 


and then connecting onwards.

No Guam -> Manila?

[weihen]

I‘m so exciting!
China...

[Kandace]

Since Peach said Taipei.. I checked flightstats and I think we got

A) Hong Kong(departures at 8:55 AM & 9:20AM & 10:00/20AM)
B) Shanghai (departures at 9:05 & 10:10AM
C) Guangzhou(10AM, 1:55PM, 2:30PM)

[georgiapeach]

No, sorry.

Seems very definite they go thru Taipei.

[redwings8831]

No, sorry.

Seems very definite they go thru Taipei.

Damn, this is harder than I thought. 

[redwings8831]

No, sorry.

Seems very definite they go thru Taipei.

Damn, this is harder than I thought. 

Are we sure they are continuing on to somewhere else from Taipei?

[georgiapeach]

Yes.

Heeee...everything I know about flight tracking, I learned in your games! 

[Kandace]

No, sorry.

Seems very definite they go thru Taipei.

Those were departures I found From Taipei

[redwings8831]

Since Peach said Taipei.. I checked flightstats and I think we got

A) Hong Kong(departures at 8:55 AM & 9:20AM & 10:00/20AM)
B) Shanghai (departures at 9:05 & 10:10AM
C) Guangzhou(10AM, 1:55PM, 2:30PM)

I don't think it will be Hong Kong as there were direct flights there from LAX tonight. I'm thinking Guangzhou or some smaller Chinese city that would require the Taipei connection.

[redwings8831]

Yes.

Heeee...everything I know about flight tracking, I learned in your games! 

I just find it weird that the two flights are so close to each other and thus could place all teams on the same connection flight (especially to a smaller city). Usually, flights on the first leg are one/two hours apart.

Okay...I think I can reveal it now...
1st destination is:Shanghai,China

Well actually, Shanghai is the only destination that makes sense from flight stats.....there are not any other cities that fit the flight profiles except either Hong Kong or Macau.....and they might go there......but I would think after they go someplace else in China first......

Eva Air  BR15      1:35 am-6:20 am   LAX>TPE
Eva Air  BR712  10:10 am-12:05pm TPE>PNG

China Airlines  CI7     1:15-6:10   LAX>TPE
China Airlines  CI501 9:05 am-1050am  TPE>PVG

Why separate the teams to Taipei though?

[Kandace]

A) Hong Kong(departures at 8:55 AM & 9:20AM & 10:00/20AM)
B) Shanghai (departures at 9:05 & 10:10AM
C) Guangzhou(10AM, 1:55PM, 2:30PM)

  :O 

[DrRox]

LAX seems to be running about 10-15 minutes late tonight.....they were/have been having extremely srtong winds off the ocean the last few days.......

I suspect the teams get tickets and instructions to stay on the same alrline......no changing in Taipei........it will separate the teams by about an hour in Shanghai.

[mjriches2005]

If China is correct, it would be the second country after Brazil to have the first leg more than once.
-Brazil was visited first on three different seasons (2, 9, 13)
-China was last visited on the first leg on Season 10
 

[addie]

Really? Shanghai again? Hopefully not..

[Leafsfan]

The last time an Indian couple was on the race they went to China first as well.

[Leafsfan]

Can someone speculate about the start line task and when in ET they will arrive in Shanghai.

[Dom]

Can someone speculate about the start line task and when in ET they will arrive in Shanghai.

The starting task looks amazing if those eleven large metal structures had anything to do with it!

As for arrival in Shanghai, if teams are on the two speculated flights, we can expect them to land in 12 hours and 13.5 hours from now. In New York time, that is at 10.50pm and 12.05am this evening.

Would it not be this morning and  afternoon if it is 12 hours?

[addie]

They could go to Hangzhou, they haven't been there

Regarding those tweets with pictures from the live tweets thread...
Maddy, Kendall and Hailey all seem to be part of the same group of girls going to Myanmar (some religious group?).
Some of them are posing together in this shot:

No wonder they all posed in the same way!
