Flights have to originate in Bangkok because the teams were spotted there and because it is the major route out of Siem Reap.
Maybe it could have happened after the Delhi leg, but when you go through Dubai you are not heading for Colombo, which is 2052 miles in the wrong direction from where AR13 was headed(Europe and then the U.S.) with only 6 days to make that happen. The quickest flight is 7 hours 25 minutes. Timing precludes the race having gone Delhi to Colombo and then Colombo to Dubai. The chances that they backtracked to Colombo after Dubai and slim indeed.
RichInOz:
I really doubt that they would go to Colombo. Recent violence in Sri Lanka makes it a bit of a risk. Bit of a shame really cause it would make a change from India all the time.
apskip:
Also, let us not forget that AR6 went to Colombo before going into the highlands of Sri Lanka.

Yup sure enough I put this in the wrong thread :lol:

Long Weekend
I figuratively had a long weekend. I travelled around the whole of United Arab Emirates in one day. Driving was not that fun but by passing the great views of the dessert, I can say I had a memorable weekend.
We went to Abu Dhabi first to fetch some friends, then we headed to Al Ain. The breathtaking views of the Green Mubazzarah and Jabeel Hafeet mad our trip forgetless. On our way down from the top of Jabeel Hafeet, we saw some cameramen along the road. I was excited to see them anticipating it was the Amazing Race but it was only a shooting of a local show.
Then we had a camp at Fujairah and spent the night there before going back to Dubai by passing Ras Al Khaimah, Umm Al Qiunn and Sharjah first.
I recieved a letter from a someone who read my blog about the sighting of the Amazing Race at the Dubai International Airport. I did not know that people around the world will be talking about that entry as described by the letter sender. Hi, JonLover of entermyworld.heavenforum.
Well, to answer the questions raised by JonLover, I am not also in the position to confirm whether the sighting was really the Amazing Race productions or racers. It was only told to me by a friend who is also reliable. And to make matters clear, we were not that really drank when we were talking about it. We were in our right senses. I asked my friend again if it was true and he guaranteed me that it was also told by his friend who really witnessed the commotion.
My friend's friend is woring for Terminal 2 but that time he saw the the racers apparently was in Terminal 1. He just saw from about 200 meters away people who are running towards the customs. Some of them are holding boom mikes and cameras. Most of them are carrying heavy back packs.
He just asked some airport staffs at the Dubai Duty Free what was the commotion is all about. From them, he got the information that it was a shooting of a travel and documentary show by a network based in the US. But they were thinking it was a filming of the Amazing Race because they seemed to be outrunning each other.
I hope this will answer all your queries and I will send this also to your e-mail.

I've spoken to people within the industry who had direct involvement with The Amazing Race in New Zealand.
They definitely did a leg here, roughly the dates I mention earlier (Apr 30 - May 2) but I think it may have run a day late. I am not totally sure where they traveled, but it was out of Auckland south into the North Island (this would fit with Tauranga or Rotorua, or both). And I have no idea where they pit-stopped.
There were as many a 10 local crews on the job, plus the standard travelling crews. This was definitely the CBS Amazing Race, not a localised variant (the Asian version has been here twice in the past).
