On local news today and in local blogs http://www.vancitybuzz.com/2011/12/amazing-race-vancouver-filming-locations/ the race teams are heading for Vancouver BC today at 4pm. I will try to get some photos at one of the stops!

:welcome2: to RFF, canadianyvr! By the looks of that article, that is talking about The Amazing Race Canada (if there is such a thing). IMO, it's unlikely that teams from TAR 20 would be going there at this point in time, anyway, but that's just my spec. (:lol:)

Aus is the only possibility, since there is NO TAR Canada. Somebody better go check it out. :lol:

I am getting info that teams were seen on a flight from Havana, Cuba to Toronto. Trying to source more info as we speak but they could match up quite well with the Vancouver speculation.

Acutally Cuba isn't that dangerous.

Not true. There are no current travel advice warnings for this country set by the Australian government.

@RichInSydney Anything about the T.O info?
Trying to get more info, not sure about date/time yet either. Also not sure if this would be a transit point to Vancouver or a leg.

Remember this is all still speculation until proven otherwise!

20 mins ago: "There was a gaggle of us waiting at the cauldron for 2 hours, no one ever arrived. :("

A lot of action on Twitter today but nothing concrete. Hmmm have we been lead astray?  :duno:

Wouldn't be the first time, but this seems very specific. They would have done berrer to wait at the airport, sigh...

I waited at the cauldron, and camera crew, producer and security crew suddenly packed up. Over heard twitter and location was blown. Reporter at YVR snapped this photo of the crew at YVR airport: http://twitter.com/#!/chrisvales/media/slideshow?url=pic.twitter.com%2FfvFvZVqM

Here is a link to the Vancouver Sun, Vancouver's daily newspaper. They have a brief article on the filming: http://www.vancouversun.com/Amazing+Race+landed/5809982/story.html

Agh no way. I can't believe they're filming in Vancouver. I could ride the Expo Line and then the Canada Line to get to YVR. Too bad I have work tomorrow. (:;)

If they did originate in Havana here are the probable flights via Toronto. (The only direct flight to Vancouver is from Varadero.)
                      Dep.                 Flight                                        Arrival
HAV Havana    07:35 (07:29)   AC 971       Air Canada    10:58
Then Toronto to Vancouver:
YYZ Toronto    13:30 (14:01)   WS 681       WestJet       15:56
YYZ Toronto    14:00 (14:08)   AC 109       Air Canada    15:58
YYZ Toronto    16:00 (16:04)   AC 161       Air Canada    17:51

There are flights from Varadero to Toronto, but they have too little time between flights to get through customs and immigration.

Can't believe I missed a chance to see the teams in TO. Depending on the flights they may have had to change from terminal T1 to T3.
From there to here, and here to there,
funny things are everywhere

I waited at the cauldron, and camera crew, producer and security crew suddenly packed up. Over heard twitter and location was blown.

That is EXACTLY what happens when locations are blown and security becomes concerned for the safety of the racers.

Which is why we try to NOT reveal locations before they are underway.

If this keeps happening, they could scrub the whole Vancouver leg. :groan:
