TAR 20 Transport
Neobie:
Doesn't look like Montevideo is our destination. If there were to be a leg there TPTB would have probably released them later for a 4.13am or 7.45am flight to arrive in daylight, as opposed to having them hanging around in the dark upon arrival.
That said, if teams don't make the Sao Paulo direct, Montevideo also works as a way to get to Sao Paulo:
PU 704 from Asuncion to Montevideo: 2000-2245
PU 636 from Montevideo to Sao Paulo: 2359-0310
This means, however, that they would have missed all the flights to Europe, until 5.15pm on 3 Dec!
So it looks like teams are on the direct flight:
PZ 712 from Asuncion to Sao Paulo: 1800-2105
Which connects to:
JJ 8062 from Sao Paulo to Milan: 2240-1310, which gets to Munich 1h15 before a Frankfurt connection
JJ 8108 from Sao Paulo to Paris: 2320-1340
JJ 8070 from Sao Paulo to Frankfurt: 2325-1410
TP 86 from Sao Paulo to Lisbon: 2330-1120
JJ 8084 from Sao Paulo to London: 2350-1320
TK 16 from Sao Paulo to Istanbul: 0115-1735
I was looking at connection options via Munich (for production), and almost all of Western Europe can be ruled out. One particular spot we can look at for Legs 4 or 5, though, if Munich is a connection at all, is the Balkans - almost all the cities there are best reached from Sao Paulo via Munich...

I have been considering the Torino information from a transportation standpoint. If I were wanting to get to Torino, the closest major airports are the 2 in Milan, only 80 miles away. Only if there were a separate leg in Rome would it make sense to get to Torino from Rome.
Zack.:
Couldn't they just as easily fly to Rome then take a train/bus to Turin? December 4th sees teams in Rome and Phil in Turin shooting stand-ups; while it's possible (and would be nice) to get a Rome leg again, I think TPTB forced the teams to fly to Rome and travel by ground to Turin so Phil/production could get a jump on things by flying to Milan.

We now have info showing teams arr 12/4 as well...more to come.
