AR23 Transportation
Kacper:
I can see them getting there by train because from reports at the Pit Stop in Sopot, Phil was seen at the mat at around 3:30pm Polish time on Wednesday. That would give a lot of time for teams to take the train the next day (Thursday) and get to Vienna today. But I don't know. Just speculating.
dpe:
Gdansk -Vienna 12:48. possible, flying faster.

Hmmm. Just playing around here with flights.
But I could take any number of flight combos departing Vienna Sat anytime from 9:55 AM to 2:225 Pm and arrive Katmandu the following AM between 825 and 905 AM. :neener:
Flight Play >>change to show by arrival.
Then again, I could depart Vienna at 1025AM and be in Tel Aviv nonstop by 250PM too. :lol:

WARNING - SPEC
Other interesting options:
Ethiopia
- LH 1247 VIE FRA 620 745
LH 598 FRA ADD 1115 2045
- TK 1884 VIE IST 1035 1350 or TK 1886 VIE IST 1425 1735
TK 676 IST ADD 1850 0015 (+1)
- OS 125 VIE FRA 1740 1915
ET 707 FRA ADD 2005 0615 (+1)
- AZ 191 VIE FCO 1835 2010
ET 703 FCO ADD 2340 0640 (+1)
Note that sunset is around 1830 in ADD so teams would be arriving in darkness regardless. Maybe a spot for a charter flight (to Gondar :colors) or an HoO bunch?
Incidentally, if the teams were early enough checking in and Phil and production hauled ass, they could leave tonight (6/21) on
LH 1243 VIE FRA 1920 2050
ET 707 FRA ADD 2205 0615 (+1)
and have most of the day to do standups.
Jordan
- OS 853 VIE AMM 1010 1445 (which would probably be a good flight for Phil and production)
Beyond that there are several batches of flights; these are just guidelines and for each flight there's several others that depart and arrive within an hour of it.
- HG 8466 VIE FCO 1045 1215
RJ 102 FCO AMM 1500 1930
- OS 821 VIE IST 1325 1645
RJ 168 IST AMM 2035 2250
- RO 344 VIE OTP 1800 2030
RO 187 OTP AMM 2305 0145 (+1)
Note that sunset is around 745 in AMM, so teams would be racing around in darkness. They could squeeze out a nighttime leg here, have some sort of HoO bunch or have chartered transportation (to Petra maybe :colors)
Mauritius (aka we may as well use these HD cameras to get people in swimsuits)
Phil + production can leave tonight on
EK 126 VIE DXB 2240 0620 (+1)
EK 3703 DXB MRU 1015 1650 (both +1)
while teams can be forced tomorrow onto
EK 128 VIE DXB 1530 2055
EK 701 DXB MUR 0305 0935 (both +1)
With sunset at 1740, teams should have enough time for a drive around the island
Cyprus (either your swimsuit leg or your 'watch people enjoy alcohol' leg)
Again, if Phil can leave early enough, he can leave tonight on
OS 835 VIE LCA 2035 0040 (+1)
while teams can enjoy the morning tomorrow in Vienna before departing on one of
- OS 831 VIE LCA 1030 1435
- OS 809 VIE SKG 0945 1230
CY 427 SKG LCA 1440 1635
- A3 881 VIE ATH 1055 1410
A3 906 ATH LCA 1545 1725
- CY 373 VIE LCA 1450 1855
Note that sunset in Cyprus is around 2000 so depending on which flight they're forced onto, they can either enjoy a sunny beach leg or a nighttime leg with the possibility of drunken hooligans laughing at them attempting a task.
---
I think the best combination of interesting (ie different) location and maximization of time for both production and racers is Jordan, ideally Petra, but then again I wouldn't have chosen to go to Chile of all places in South America so what do I know?
