‏@SarahP93 is already on the plane so the teams should be on too :D

based on this picture its a Airbus A330

Air Canada flight 115

You can't tell from the pic if it's an A330 or not, there are no distinguishing features. *goes to do some research*

EDIT: It's an A330-300.

Thanks everyone for an awesome first day of TAR CA detective work.
Ummm, anyone in Vancouver want to do an airport run?

It would depend on the time the teams are expected to arrive. :(

From Twitter, here's another angle from the starting line that shows the cars and backpacks a little better. I don't think it's been posted here.

I got this from a news story about people tweeting about the start of TAR Canada. They didn't mention us though. http://o.canada.com/2013/05/03/what-its-like-to-be-filmed-for-reality-television/

Plane is being overrun by couples and camera crews from The Amazing Race. I've only been here for 5 mins and I've already picked favorites.

She is currently in Alberta and if you look at her videos she tweeted: Two guys from my Hometown are auditioning for the Amazing Race Canada!! Please watch their audition! xo.

In that video it says that team is from Kamloops.

Another sighting on the Canada Line that mentions Bridgeport Station:

Britanya ‏@BritanyaHodge 4m
Amazing Race contestants are running around Bridgeport station & are on the Canada Line this morning! #cool


The Canada Line is part of the Vancouver area Sky Train rail system. If you are coming from the North (Vancouver), the route map indicates that Bridgeport Station is where the trains split off to go to Vancouver airport. So, the assumption that they are headed to the airport makes sense.

From Facebook (with unneeded fluff edited out):

<Local Radio Station>
Amazing Race sighting in Kelowna! Just got a call from <radio station> listener Scotty and he said he saw the teams at Kelowna International Airport this morning.

He also said he recognized a couple of the contestants...Hal Johnson and Joanne Mcleod.

Cool! Anyone else see the teams in town?

<Listener 1> I heard they were at my work!
about an hour ago via mobile

<Listener 2>  Were they leaving or arriving in Kelowna?
about an hour ago

<Radio Station>  Listener 1 - Where do you work?  Listener 2 - They were leaving Kelowna and heading to Vancouver.

<Listener 1> The delta grand hotel!

<Listener 3> Our geocaching club hosted a flash mob at Stuart Park for World Wide Flash Mob 10 day and they saw the contestants. Wish I hadn't missed it now!
