I do not agree because this does not compute. If teams left Santiago on April 30, they cannot arrive in Auckland until May 2. They have to be in Siem Reap that evening in order to be at Angkor Wat the following morning. There is no possibility of any leg in New Zealand or Australia. In order to have a leg in New Zealand or Australia there must be at least one day in either country. Teams have to leave Santiago no later than April 29 and I have not altered my view that they really did leave on April 28.

Why must the teams go to Australia or New Zealand? Whats not to believe apskips? Shall we ask to see the bloggers ticket? Sorry we can't twist the schedule to make it make sense to you, it is what it is, in black and white :spy:

The departure date for the blogger is not necessarily identical to the departure date fo the Amazing Race teams. Is there other evidence to support the April 30 departure date? Flights from somewhere in South America to Santiago to Auckland to Bangkok to Siem Reap on planes for about 2 full days are possible, but that's a bit much continous travel even for Amazing Racers.
georgiapeach:
Apskip--the blogger Justin SAW the teams at the airport leaving Santiago on 4/30. I am willing to vouch that he is sincere and very honest about what he saw. I believe that what he saw were our teams.
So if we believe that date, I think now we have to very sadly perhaps give up Australia/NZ as task locations instead if time does not permit.
The Melbourne sighting was NOT reliable.
Kiwi has said that the NZ radio report most likely refers to a local TAR race which was there.
So if the data doesn't fit, and I absolutely believe you about time and dates, we have to look instead at other possibilities, IMO, and maybe let go of trying to squeeze in Australia/NZ instead. Perhaps they went another route entirely?
How else could they get from Santiago to Cambodia? Must they change in Australia at all? What other routes are possible?

I agree with this--so what happens if we take Auckland and Bangkok out of the mix? How ELSE can we get them there?
georgiapeach:
okay--I just saw this excellent post by Neobie!

So maybe we CAN squeeze in one leg in NZ?? ??? I would LOVE that!
Remember that Justin thought that the teams left Santiago not all together though...and perhaps by 7-ish...
apskip:
Peach, I don't care what Justin thought. The only trans-Pacific nonstop flights that I know of are LAN801 departing at 2245 from Santiago and AR1182 departing at 2359 from Buenos Aires. I guess it's possible that teams went from SCL to EZE, but then they left even later to AKL, which defeats your purpose.
puddin:
Not only did Justin see teams he said they were exhausted and dirty, isn't that right peach? It might indicate something happened prior to Santiago or near?
