I have had some difficulty understanding how the USAir flight attendant Karen credited by Dan and Jordan for their strategic move can be at work on UA858. I may have the answer. UA858 was code-shared with 4 different airlines:

 (US) US Airways 6803
 (FM) Shanghai Airlines 8661
 (CO) Continental Airlines 6012
 (CA) Air China International 885

I have not heard of code-sharing airlines supplying flight personnel but this is apparently what happened since there is no other reasonable way to explain it. From what I can discover, the reference by I think Jordan to other flights would all point back to the same United flight at the same time since there were no comparable alternative flights they could have used.

Intrigued as I always am by international air route questions, I decided to see what alternatives Dan and Jordan (as well as Jet/Cord and Brent/Caite since CBS and World Race Productions were not going to let any team be on a different real flight from the others) had to UA858 and its codeshare partners. There are codeshare variations, but these essential core flight options all left earlier and arrived later, which is appropriate versus a nonstop flight:

KE5886 PVG ICN 1225 1520   KE023    ICN SFO 1645  1115
JL5266 PVG  KIX  1225 1540   NH7070 KIX SFO  1725  1121
MU5033 PVG ICN 1235 1520  UA892    ICN SFO  1700 1123

Hey! This was my favourite AR season. I can completely relate to viewing this show as a dream! I haven't been able to build up the courage to try and sign up yet... gotta leave the job and stuff behind, and it's not easy. But it would surely be awsome!
Too bad I missed Jordan online  :'(

I don't remember peach being a casting officer for TAR. Please don't treat her as a Know-It-All because she's definitely not.

Please go to CBS. CBS = Know It All for TAR.

Kthxbye.

If you were following past racers on Twitter during the TAR18 premiere, you would have seen some fascinating tweets from Jordan regarding the Cowboys, Phil and CBS.  He's apparently not too happy about the way the Cowboys' "unfinished business" has been portrayed in the new season.

I won't post anything here, but check out @JordanPious

Not too happy is an understatement..........no offense to Dan and Jordan fans, but boy were some of the posts MEAN! I know that the reason Jet and Cord lost the race was not because of the cutting incident, but still, calling them stupid, gross, that they were born losers, and saying Jet is homophobic is beyond "not too happy"....... Jordan needs to :chillpill:

What have the cowboys done to get so much hate? Nothing like what Dan and Jordan are doing to them that's for sure! And Jordan won, you can't even call him a sore loser! There is no explanation for his issues, he got the million!

For anybody who thinks they somehow offended the brothers b/c of a rumor, Jordan has now made up for it and then some.

Let's just point something out for the folks keeping score at home.

None of us have met Dan & Jordan. None of us have met Jet & Cord. None of us saw how these four people interacted for three weeks of constant contact while filming TAR16. And according to several post-race interviews with Dan & Jordan, both of them made very specific claims about things Jet said to Jordan over the course of the race.

Jordan has been a fan of the show since the beginning. It was his dream to get a chance to run the race, as I'm sure it is for many of us here. He finally got his chance, and was fortunate enough (not lucky... luck doesn't win the race) to come away with the top prize. It just so happened that one of the teams he and his brother beat was one of the most popular teams to EVER run the race, and now Jordan has to deal with a tarnished legacy and claims of cheating. Let's make it clear: I don't approve of the name-calling. But other than that, I have to agree with Jordan. He's being made to seem like he's a liar and a cheater, and it's completely without merit.

I don't think that the brothers cheated their way to victory, the cowboys loss is their own fault.

However, nothing calls for the kind of attitude Jordan is displaying to the whole world. No one has to say anything against him, he is showing everyone what he is really like as are his fans.

For lack of a better expression, cry me a river about his tarnished reputation no one can tarnish your reputation like you can yourself. He obviously doesn't care about it to be acting like that.

No one has accused them of cheating but I would take the so called allegations and the million dollars they have and be happy.

Not at all trying to wage war with you Mug, just ticked off at Mr. Pious.

Beautifully said, Mugs! And some of us have met all of them. :lol:

Nothing like what Dan and Jordan are doing to them that's for sure!

You only know what you were shown, TP...you do not have access to all the info.

I will just say that Jordan has VERY strong and valid reasons for being upset, although perhaps Twitter is not the best outlet. And for CBS to allow the Cowboys to infer cheating when they plain got outsmarted was not exactly great judgement either, IMO.

With that, I would prefer us to move along, this topic cannot be resolved by us, particularly those who do not have all the facts. We all have our own opinions I am sure, but this is not the place to resolve them.
