I have spent a lot of time transiting CDG. That airport is one of my least favorites and can frequently be hell. Lines are a nightmare, security can be overwhelmed, gate are swarming with far more people than there is space. Many gates require taking an overworked bus/shuttle from the terminal to the plane. Delays are common.
I would easily want twice as much time as is stated.
apskip:
Mayber someone else has pointed this out (if so I missed it) but Jaipur, seen in the Amazing Race 1 episode 8 (the DETOUR Elephant or Rowaboat) is a pit stop for AR14. I will have flights shortly.
DrRox:
Well if Preston/Jennifer made the quick connections, why are they still in Italy at 5 pm......thats the clincher to me.
Neobie:
While waiting for Apskip to help us with the flights...
Investigating the Jaipur Pit Stop
Quick recap:
Phil left Delhi in the late evening of Thr 13 Nov, and arrives in Phuket on the morning of Fri 14 Nov.
Teams left Bangkok for Phuket on the morning of Sat 15 Nov.
The last team to check in at Jaipur arrives after 6.00am, Thr 13 Nov.
9W373 (0900-0945) flies from Jaipur to Delhi, and TG324 (1155-1725) from Delhi to Bangkok. This combination could get Phil into Phuket in the evening of Thr 13 Nov, but Phil arrives too late at the airport to catch it.
The last team to check in at Jaipur arrives before 8.30pm, Thr 13 Nov.
The latest Phil could have left Jaipur is on IT612 from Jaipur to Delhi (2130-2210), which connects to 9W64 from Delhi to Bangkok (0100-0655).
Teams check out of Jaipur after 12.30am, Fri 14 Nov.
If leaving Jaipur by plane, teams departing the next day also arrive too late at the airport to catch the 9W373/TG324 combination.
If teams leave for Delhi by bus, they'd have to catch the last bus at 12.30am for hopes of catching TG324.
If teams leave for Delhi by train, they'd have to leave Jaipur by 5.30am.
Teams check out of Jaipur before 8.30pm, Fri 14 Nov.
Teams need to arrive in Bangkok before 7.30am for the flight to Phuket. The latest they can leave Jaipur (same as Phil for the previous day) is at 9.30pm.
A 36-hour Pit Stop means teams checked in in the range of 6am to 8.30am, which doesn't sound very plausible. Assuming a 12-hour Pit Stop, teams checked in between 12.30pm and 8.30pm on Thr 13 Nov.
