The Amazing Race 14 Speculation on Spoilers
topaz:
see, my speculation is quite right. They went to China alright and probably that will be the 10th leg of the race, and I'm also right that both TAR 14 and TAR Israel will simultaneously feature on that country as well and we're gonna see it next year. btw, Guilin is located just on the southern part of China, and they're almost near to Hong Kong and Macau, the 2 cities that was filmed for the upcoming TAR Israel and imagine how very close to those places for the production of those 2 versions of TAR franchise.
And next year, it'll be the productions of TAR 15, TARA 4 and TAR LA, simultaneously. And what country do you think it might feature on the filming of these 3 seasons of different TAR franchise, simultaneously? Remember when both TAR 12 and TARA 2 was simultaneously filmed, last year, they'd featured Japan but they'd went to a different cities [on TAR 12 it was Osaka while TARA 2 was in Tokyo] and 6 or 7 months ago both TAR 13 and TARA 3, they'd raced to India. Isn't it coincidence?
So, I'll take a guess, maybe Canada for TAR 15, TARA 4 and TAR LA?

"Guilin is located just on the southern part of China, and they're almost near to Hong Kong and Macau." I guess this depends on your definition of almost near. I took a hydrofoil from somewhere in the Guilin area direct to Hong Kong, a trip of over 500 miles. It took over 9 hours at hydrofoil speed. The 500 miles included a bypass of Guangzhou, so as the crow flies the distance is maybe 400 miles. I would not expect AR14 teams to have a 10th leg in Hong Kong due to past races visiting there.

I don't have any really good ideas to present. I have the results of some spculation that I have been engaging in. We know that Phil was spotted in Delhi airport in the early hours of Nov. 14. That suggests that leg 7 might have been in India or just adjacent. The 3 most interesting places that prior Amazing Races have not visited are Kathmandu, Bangalore and Goa. I have investigated flights for each one and find that there are plenty of nonstop flights Kathmandu to Bangkok, so AR14 would not likely have gone to Bangkok via Delhi (even if it's just for Phil). From Bangalore to Bangkok there are lots of connections, but few going through Delhi, so I do not think that Bangalore was the lucky city. From Goa, there are no routes through Delhi so it is also unlikely to have been chosen.
So I can tell you which 3 Indian or Nepalese cities it is not likely to be. I have to go back to the drawing boards for other Indian cities that would be most accessible through Delhi. That list would have Bikaner, Varanasi, and Gwalior on it. It is possible that AR14 only had Phil connect in Delhi from somewhere north or west of India, but I doubt this. The rich Amazing Race episodes in India are legendary and I doubt they bypassed India if it was along the way.
