Oh my God this is amazing!!! Finally they visit a North American country.

Now a new country in Latin America or something like Ireland in Europe would be great

One question, where was the Starting Line? It was in Mexico? :S

We will see what happens. I don't find that hashtag to be very convincing evidence. It may just mean that the person who did the sighting is planning to go skiing at Chamonix. It's only about 50 miles from Geneva.

Marionete · « **Reply #25 on:** November 23, 2015, 02:30:05 PM »

Leg 1 Mexico City, Mexico
Legs 2-3 Cartagena, Colombia
Leg 4 Geneva, Switzerland & Chamonix, France (PROBABLY one leg)

That is our best assumption right now and I pretty much love the route so far

Switzerland has become mainstream to be visited nearly every spring season, but France will look very different for a leg in that country. And if it's a joint leg with 2 countries, it will be very cool!

georgiapeach · « **Reply #26 on:** November 23, 2015, 05:55:34 PM »

Please tell me if this info below is incorrect:

Leg 1: Mexico City, Mexico
Leg 2: Cartagena, Colombia
Leg 3: Cartagena, Colombia
Leg 4: Geneva, Switzerland
Leg 5: Chamomix, France
Leg 6: Athens, Greece
Leg 7: Yerevan, Armenia

If this is correct, we have 6 countries so far. I'm hoping for 10 countries to be visited this season just like the previous season.

Maanca · « **Reply #35 on:** November 26, 2015, 01:58:05 PM »

Greece is a question mark.

We have one sighting at the Athens airport, which may have just been a connection. The timeframe is kinda tight for a leg there.

TAR must be reinventing itself due to the bad edit after the TAR 27 season disaster

So now the route goes like this

Leg 1
Mexico City, Mexico
Leg 2 - 3
Cartagena, Colombia
Leg 4
Geneva, Switzerland and Chamonix, France
Leg 5
France in the Alps
Leg 6
Yerevan, Armenia
Leg 7
Tbilisi, Georgia

Keep 'em new countries coming TAR, I'm looking forward to this season more

Awesome, multi-city start. It's fun to see the teams starting on their own houses!
But I suppose the flights will be similar, because it can be unfair if a flight is longer than the others. But well, if you have seen the live periscope of Phil at Mexico we can see it doesn't matters at all.

theschnauzers · « **Reply #76 on:** December 13, 2015, 11:40:10 AM »

As far as the apparent start city/airports go, two of the four (LAX and MIA) have been in that role before. Yes, MIA multiple times (TAR 3 and TAR 11). DFW and ATL have been final cities before. Only one city has been a start city and not a final city -- Boston. Chicago, Denver, Seattle have been both. At least it isn't all LAX; it's spread around, and from what I've seen online the flights were chosen so that all the teams would arrive in Mexico City at about the same time, and I assume some teams would be held so they'd be released from Customs at the same time if need be. (A very common practice when all the teams are scheduled to arrive on the same flight.)

TPTB have been using live or recorded video route markers with Phil since TAR 6 in Hungary. They have been using video clues more frequently in recent seasons. So that is established in TAR as well. The only new element is the multiple cities/aairports for the start line, and I have to admit it's a neat trick.

JMO, but I don't see the value in forming strong opinions about new teams in filming with little information or no information other than the superficial kind in the press releases for the open start seasons. I do not engage in it. I stopped predicting whether one or more teams would be final three after TAR 14 because the kinds of information I would need is generally no longer put out there. YMMV.
