But if TARA visits HK again, it would be their 3rd time in a row out of 4 seasons (the HK visit in TARA2 was an extremely short one, but had a task in it).

Regarding the new HK spoiler:

QUESTION (for anyone): Does that forum THAT active? I mean, the gap of posting, it's 1 minute per post (well, almost each post, except, of course, some) ???

Hello :lol:
I'm the person who took those photos.
I saw that 2 teams went intp Seibu Department store in Tsim Sha Tsui for a while.
Then two teams ran to the intersection of Nathan Rd and Haiphong Rd.
I tried to run and catch them but there were many people on the streets.
One of two teams go on a cab and another team of 2 girls call for another cab.
However, it seemed that the cab driver didn't understand their English. So the cab stop on the road for around 4 minutes and then go away too.

Actually I was waiting for a bus at that moment.
And I saw two people ran out from the store and went on a cab. At least a man in this team.
Another team of 2 girls went on another cab and they are the team in these 2 photos.

Awesome!  At least one women's team made it this far!

Still, it'd be great to hear what happened to the Lime Greens, the Blues, and the Reds.

Hmmm...if that's Team Pink, why does neither of them appear to have blonde hair? I'm inclined to think there's a possibility of it being Team Red. Do we know what color the Team Red packs are?

The blonde one is in the cab.  She has the green backpack.

Unless there was another one to make it this far, I'm surprised they seem to be the last of the women's teams.

It's not yet confirmed if Korea is TAR or TARA, but if it is TAR, any keen spoilers based in HK who are planning on spending a day out at the airport today could look in particular at the following direct flights to Seoul. (and please have your camera ready to snap any teams you see!)


CX 410   Cathay Pacific Airways    9:30 AM     T-1
KE 604   Korean Air Lines    12:25 PM       T-1   
OZ 722   Asiana Airlines    1:15 PM       T-1   
KE 614   Korean Air Lines    2:15 PM       T-1   
CX 418   Cathay Pacific Airways    2:20 PM    T-1   
OZ 982   Asiana Airlines    2:50 PM         
TG 628   Thai Airways International    3:30 PM       T-2

Apperently they are expected in korea by 4PM today...so earlier flights might be the best to look at!

It's 2:50pm there now, so in approx 1 hr.

9:30 flt was the last one that would have got there in time, and it landed about 1 hr ago. Next flight due to land at 5:pm local time.
Macau was the other option that departed around 2 am and landed at 6:21am

That flight landed at 145...seems to be cutting it close plus all teams would be bunched...

I am liking the batch of 4-5AM arrival flights, but can we get them out of HK in time?

Is there no other closer airport? guess not....
