The Amazing Race Asia 3 Spoilers/Speculation
puddin:
Just when you think there are no more spoilers :sucks
May 25, 2008 (data:DateTime : 2008:05:25 15:53:22 )
The Amazing Race being shot at the imperial city. That chick took herself mad seriously.
apskip:
That is one day ahead of what my Timeline indicates for Hue. That means that my assumption of an extended pitstop in Saigon is incorrect. Instead, leg 4 will end with a regular pitstop to be finished the morning of May 25 and leg 5 will begin with a flight SGN HUE Vietnam Airlines250 0700 0820 or Vietnam Airlines252 1130 1250.
apskip:
UPDATED ARA3 TIMELINE (and then modified July 23 and 24)
Note that there should be an extended pitstop in Vietnam. It can't be in Saigon due to the latest findings about teh Imperial City being visited May 25, so it should be in Hue(where I place it below) or in Hanoi (an alternative not shown but obvious if there is not one in Hue).
May 19 Beijing - start of ARA3; pitstop
May 20 leg 2 begins; teams spotted in Beijing airport before 935am and then mid afternoon at Khao San Road in Bangkok
PEK BKK TG675 0830 1215 connecting in Bangkok to TG116 BKK CNX 1715 1825
May 21 Bankgkok tasks and pitstop
May 22 leg 3 begins; logical flights BKK CNX are:
TG102 0755 0855
TG104 1030 1140
TG616 1220 1330
TG110 1240 1350
tasks in Chiang Mai region; pitstop
May 23 leg 4 begins; CNX BKK TG103 0945 1055 connecting Bangkok to Bkk SGN AF164 1325 1450
tasks in Saigon(Ho Chi Minh City); NOTE that this is a speculative leg since we do not know where leg 4 is yet. However, Saigon is the only really logical spot on the air routes between Chiang Mai and Hue(Hanoi is another but north of Hue and likely to be aftter it in the ARA3 leg order).
May 24 tasks; Saigon area pitstop begins
May 25 leg 5 begins; VN250 0700 0820 SGN HUI or VN252 1130 1250;
sighting at Imperial City;
there could be an extended pitstop in the evening
May 26 pitstop continues
May 27 begin leg 6 Hue to Hanoi; NOTE that Hanoi is speculation on my part. it makes eminent sense based on the geography and timing, but there are other possiblities of much lower probability that could have been the desintation of leg 6(an example being Guangzhou, China)
VN244 HUE HAN 1210 1320
tasks; begin pitstop
May 28 begin leg 7 Hanoi to Hong Kong
VN790 HAN HKG 1105 1355 or
VN792 HAN HKG 1910 2000
tasks in Hong Kong
May 29 complete tasks in Hong Kong with TBC; begin leg 8 in Macau after taking hydrofoil in under 1 hour
May 30 Macau tasks; pitstop
May 31 begin leg 9; return to Hong Kong Airport by hydrofoil; fly to Singapore. most probable flights are CX717 0855 1230 or SQ857 1030 1410 or CX739 1120 1505
tasks in Singapore area, then start pitstop
June 1 begin leg 10
SilkAir468 SIN COK 2020 2215
You should believe whichever version you find to have the best thought process behind it.
georgiapeach:
Apskip, again, please remember that our "sighting" in Saigon is for MAY 21, not the 24-35. There is no evidence for Saigon at any other time, and the sighting on May 21 may or may not be our race. Perhaps you could reconsider those dates?
If there is an extended pitstop in Chiang Mai, then the dates in Hue fit perfectly without Saigon on the 24-25.
And also again, there is no evidence for Hanoi other than geographic proximity--no sightings, no photos, no clues, no blogs...
Slowhatch:
Where does the blogger live? If it's the U.S. or Europe, would a trip to Hue create a large time-spread between camera-clock time and actual time? (Assuming: 1, the camera clock was set correctly when she left; 2, she didn't reset)
