So TAR30 is on course having another eastward route and watch them having the finale in Greater Los Angeles area again since it's not start there.


I would placing my bet on Dublin or Iceland/Finland premiere leg. :lol:

I think Iceland is my bet. Ireland is strongly possible too.

Everyone is talking about these countries which means: is it island-themed route?

I'm gonna be general by saying I think they'll head to Europe for Leg 1. South America and Africa are the next 2 closest possibilities. I'll also agree that Asia is unlikely with a New York start.

I'll be there with my two cameras (including a long lens), so I'll try to load up on high quality photos for us to decipher from afterward! I'm planning to arrive by 10:00 AM (unless anyone else is planning on arriving earlier).

Is there any information about live streaming of the live start online? I'm obviously too far away and way too short on dollars to ven think of going. As I would have to pay for two -- Can't leave Edele gere by herself being the puppy she is.

These would be my top two first stop choices too!

No, that was just someone jumping to an incorrect conclusion. Hopefully you'll see them at the live start though!

Welcome! I would highly suggest being there about 830-9. Based on the last two, the early setup and run-thru's are great fun to see, and you'll have the best chance to see former racers interact with BVM and crew early. And you can look for me!

Using the flight availability theory, and if the 1st destination is a a direct flight, here are the most abundant options departing from JFK after 4PM (my range of search was up to 11pm, and I've excluded Sao Paulo, as I doubt they'll visit here again this soon), based on scheduled flights available on flightstats.

Did not search earlier, as I tried to account for time to travel to airport, time for a task or to get to ticket counter and also security at airport, and maybe some time for some footage at the airport.

Buenos Aires: 4h10 / 9h59 - Seems far fetched, 2 flights, but too far apart. Been a while seeing all teams heading to 1st destination in one flight.
Paris: 4h20 / 5h20 / 5h47 / 6h25 / 6h40 / 7h30 / 9h10 / 9h50
Frankfurt: 4h10 / 7h39 / 8h55 / 9h55
Rome: 4h25 / 5h20 / 6h05 / 7h43 / 10h05
London: So many that I'm too lazy to reproduce here
Dublin: 5h30 / 7h05 / 8h50 / 10h07
Amsterdam: 5h35 / 8h34 /10h15
Barcelona: 5h45 / 7h49
Dusseldorf; 5h55 / 9h40
Zurich: 6h00 / 6h10 / 6h11 / 9h00
Brussels: 6h15 / 7h36
Milan: 6h15 / 6h23/ 8h30 / 10h20
Santiago: 7h00 / 7h30
Madrid: 7h10 / 9h00 / 10h05
Edinburgh: 7h20 / 9h31
Manchester: 7h25 / 9h30 / 10h00
Reykjavik: 8h40 / 9h08

UPDATE:
Decided to check out earlier scheduled flights, even though they might not work for the Racers, those earlier flights between 1PM to 3PM might work for Phil.
2 Destinations listed above kind of jump-out:
- Santiago: 2h05 / 2h59
- Reykjavik: 2h10

Food for thought

Doh! That's why no one was talking about them.

Considering that one post back then about 31 being hinted as potential returnees, I'm not gonna have any heart attacks until then  :funny:

You had the word right the first time, yes, "fallacy". But both are pretty much the same thing.

What they're basically saying is a "fans vs favourites" sort of thing. I'd be hopeful it's not. Season 30 is a nice, round, monumental number, so no doubt there's going to be something special.

But returnees, even as partial, no thank you, but sadly it probably is about that time. 7 seasons between All-Stars and UB. Another 6 before Fake All-Stars, and here we are another 6 seasons later.

I really hope it's an all-new cast. :groan:
If they invite at least some people back, it means they're not listening to their fans at all.
Neither superfans, nor casuals want to see returnees now.

I agree on that it will be an all-newbie 2-person team. No mix of newbies and returnees like Survivor and Big Brother.
