NICE job Boingo and dtyz87!   :bunny

Is this the recycle/bike location--or something else??

Boingo:
No surprise, but according to this interactive map of Kuala Lumpur, the building where C/M are standing is the Kampung Baru Mosque.   :angel:

I have been doing my usual with the airline flights. I start with my assumptions about the earliest teams can reach Krakow airport. They are:

Uchenna/Joyce and Oswald/Danny -  around 7am

Dustin/Kandice, Charla/Mirna and Eric/Danielle - after 1pm

So, that means that the obvious 6am flight to Vienna with the wonderful connection to Kuala Lumpur is out(and no doubt Amazing Race producers knew that when they scheduled the activites after Auschwitz/Birkenau to assure that the pitstop time plus 12 hours would be later than 5am).

The best flight if they hustle and can figure out the routing immediately on reaching the airport is:

OS8508 departing  KRK 0735 arriving VIE 0845
OS8803 departing VIE 1000 arriving ZRH 1125, with a very close connection on
MH(Malaysian) 009 departing ZRH 1210 arriving KUL 0605 Dec. 9

The next best is:
LO343 departing KRK arriving CDG 1010
MH002 departing CDG arriving KUL 0635 Dec. 9

My guess is that Oswald/Danny and Uchenna/Joyce each make a different choice. I bet O/D go through CDG with better luck than U/J.

The other 3 teams' best option appears to be:
OK(CSA) 773 departing KRK 1440 arriving PRG 1555
OK618 departing PRG 1705 arriving AMS 1840
KL809 departing AMS 2100 arriving KUL 1440 Dec. 9

This puts all these teams at least 8 hours behind the 2 teams if they arrived on schedule between 0605 and 0635. It makes it difficult to explain how Charla/Mirna all of a sudden become the leaders at Batu Caves. If someone can figure that out, please let me know. The only way I can explain it is that weather trouble or delays in Zurich and Paris do not affect Amsterdam and allow the 3 trailing teams to get back into the lead.
 

ChaoSPBunny:
Perhaps another equalizer?

georgiapeach:
apskip--would one more day make a difference in the flights?

I ask because on the Pitstop Cam they show our Final Five having a lovely lunch together down in the salt mine near Krakow :happy:

But I can't figure out how they do that without a longer than usual Pitstop--maybe 24 hours? It just seems like the teams are too spread out for everybody to have a leisurely lunch together inside of 12 hours...what do you think?
