TAR13 Episode Timeline, Route, Schedule

<< < (26/38) > >>

georgiapeach:
The point here is that we have have learned from experience to not trust BVM's geography or mileages in these interviews. Despite his many talents, a geographer he is not! He kept saying Antarctica was nearby in TAR 11, when it was over 2000 miles away! :lol: Just don't put a lot of faith in those numbers...

Remember this  2  African countries?   :lol:

Ireland is one of five new countries The Amazing Race 12 filmed in, along with Croatia, Lithuania and two African countries with names that van Munster said most people can't pronounce.

"It's very exciting to go to new locations because we have gone to places where people have never seen a television camera or have never seen television," he explained.  "But these are the people we also have to work with.  So from a producer's perspective, it's more than exciting."

So we've got Legs 1-5 through to Cambodia, Legs 10-11 locked in as Moscow and Portland, and slotting in Delhi and Almaty, just two more legs to discover!

Does the gap between the 7th and the 13th (Delhi and Moscow) warrant three legs, or just two? Because timeline-wise Cambodia would be the most probable place to host two legs. (Otherwise it'd be an extended Pit Stop.)

patlini, I am of the opinon that Dubai was not the way AR13 went to Kazazhstan. The evidence for a stop there is weak in my opinion. As for Delhi,  the most direct and appropriate flight is the one you show, but it goes only once per week. Do you think the producers would have scheduled that? I don't because it's too risky that the race will be delayed enough to screw up that flight. The alternatives from Delhi to Alamaty are really awful. The best of a bad bunch is Turkish Airlines via Istanbul. Flights are:

TK1079 0445 0910 DEL IST connecting in Istanbul to TK1350 IST ALA 1940 0400+1

This is a 23 hour jaunt, but it does fly 6 times each week. I consider it more likely than if the route is nonstop from Delhi to Almaty.

The big question for the AR13 route right now was one of the places home to 2 legs of AR13 (Siem Reap being the most probable) or is there some other pitstop on the way to Almaty. I have no answer to that right now.
