Thanks Puddin, that's the kind of stuff that counts.

This might be a good time to remind CHATEAU who pointed out the connection first:

By the way, it looks to me that the numbering 13-1111 confirms the fact that there were 11 episodes in AR13.

Actually, Apskip, your post on May 15th where you say

came after Puddin's post on May 14th where she says
--- Quote ---What's confirmed is TAR is in down! The producers clip boards were in view. We could read 13 - 1111 on the sheet. This is RACE 13.
--- End quote ---
If it is not obvious to you already I should point out that when she bolded the bit about numbering it means she is saying that the production activies that day were for the 11th episode. So your statement made the next day was not original and basically redundant.

Date of original post was May 15. This post takes into account new information from Schwarzmoor:
May 8, leg 8
KC954 0705 1030 DXB ALA, then tasks in Alamaty(one of several connect points from Dubai to Moscow, not the one I consider to have the highest probability.Next most probable would be Astana, another large city in Kazakhstan.
tasks in the afternoon and evening, followed by start of 36 hour pitstop. This is speculative.
May 9
36 hour pitstop in Almaty
May 10, leg 9
choice of 2 flights ALA Moscow:
ALA DME KC206 0630 0925
ALA SVO KC256 1650 1955
start tasks in Moscow
May 11,
finish tasks and start pitstop in Moscow
May 12 Moscow to Oporto Portugal
DME VIE OS601 0550 0635 followed by a 30 minute connection to
VIE FRA OS121 0705 0840 and
FRA OPO TP6680 0925 1100 or LH4553 1425 1600 or TP6684 2155 2300
start and complete tasks in Oporto; pitstop
May 13
OPO LIS TP653 1730 1825
LIS FRA TP588 1910 2315
Note: this is the latest reasonable flight combinationto get to FRA before LH468 below
May 14, leg 11
0945 1120 LH468 FRA PDX, then tasks until FINISH LINE
This segment of the total Timeline was previously the subject of speculation and still is. Nothing is really known for absolute sure yet. However, there are several things that appear likely:
1. Next we have to find a connection between Dubai and Moscow. There are only so many possiblitiies, those for which flights out of Dubai were in a west(but not too far), northwest, or north direction. Those include Halsinki, Talinn, Riga, Vilnius, Istanbul, Baku, Tashkent, Almaty, and Astana. The ones that have flights from Dubai are:
Baku 0110 J2016
Tashkent 1230 HY334
Kiev 1930 P5374
Almaty 0705 KC954
Istanbul 0400 SQ490
Istanbul 1165 0745
Istanbul 1430 EK121
This table indicates that the highest probability destination should be Istanbul, but with that City having prior Amazing Races stop I doubt that it happened in AR13.
5. The one that fits best is Almaty, Kazakhstan. Now in addition to Almaty Kazakhstan has Astana, another large city with major international flights, including to Moscow. The amount of time between Dubai and Moscow has to be filled with exactly 1 leg. I think Kazakhstan will be that country, but who knows.
6. Dubai appears to have been only a transit point. I do not think teams stayed there for tasks and pitstop.
Neobie:
Apskip, I don't think there was a Porto in there...
