TAR Canada 1: SPECULATION and DISCUSSION of Spoilers

<< < (13/31) > >>

saskvagabond:
There's also an Air Canada flight leaving for Vancouver in 30 minutes.

Leafsfan:
They are scheduled to be in Regina tomorrow. Are there any flights from Van to Regina?

Youp:
Since they are using Air Canada for all their flights, I wonder if they are using the Latin American version of the Amazing Race, where they all take the same flight, but you sign in with your arrival time and then have to wait at the next airport the amount of time you arrived after the first team.

georgiapeach:
:welcome: to RFF, Youp!

Interesting idea!

saskvagabond:
There are no direct flights to Regina from Vancouver tonight.

I have information that is enough to know that one of the tasks in Regina is expected to take place sometime around noon, or thereabouts. I hesitate to divulge where or what until it's happening to avoid completely spoiling Regina any more than it already is. Just trust me.

The teams will have to fly either through Edmonton or Calgary to get to Regina.

If by Edmonton, they have the following options from Vancouver:
17:05   Air Canada   AC244   Edmonton (YEG)  Arrival 19:34
20:10   Air Canada   AC246   Edmonton (YEG)  Arrival 22:40
21:20   Air Canada   AC248   Edmonton (YEG)  Arrival 23:49
23:10   Air Canada   AC252   Edmonton (YEG)  Arrival 01:39

However, no matter which flight they take to Edmonton, they are there over night. Next available flight to Regina:
May-13   Air Canada   8470    Regina     06:05   Arrival 07:43

If by Calgary, the following options are available from Vancouver:
17:00   Air Canada   AC222   Calgary (YYC)  Arrival 19:25
18:00   Air Canada   AC224   Calgary (YYC)  Arrival 20:25
19:30   Air Canada   AC226   Calgary (YYC)  Arrival 21:56
21:30   Air Canada   AC228   Calgary (YYC)  Arrival 23:56
23:10   Air Canada   AC230   Calgary (YYC)  Arrival 01:35

They will miss the 19:00 flight to Regina. Next flight from Calgary to Regina is:
AC8430    Regina   A14    07:00   Arrival 08:25

There is, however, one more distinct possibility that ties into the task that is not expected to be visited until around noon.

From Calgary:
AC8592    Saskatoon   A27    23:30  Arrival 12:35

From Vancouver:
20:45   Air Canada   AC8576   Saskatoon (YXE)   Arrival 23:40

Perfect time to have an Hours of Operation stayover, and to have the teams drive from Saskatoon to Regina (2.5 hours roughly). Just in time to be expected at the task. Though this last bit is complete pure and utter speculation. And possibly wishful thinking on my part that they would be here in Saskatoon. But at least I can eliminate this particular avenue of speculation myself in a few hours. Plus, there are two places I can think of that an hours of operation would make sense. I won't name them here, but they are both immensely important in regards to the history of the area, and the history of Canada. One is just outside Saskatoon, the other is about an hours drive.

As a side note. I kinda went through this with the idea that teams are wanting the FASTEST flights with the shortest layovers possible. It's why I left out any flights arriving in Saskatoon tomorrow morning (beyond direct interference by producers telling teams which flights they cannot take, there is no reason why, if they have to go to Saskatoon first, they won't take one of those two available flights).
