Or insisted on going to the travel agency. Making their way straight to the airport, of course no thanks to the cab driver who got lost, ended the race for them. Per Neobie, it was about an hour away from the airport and when it became clear that as they arrived to the airport that the counters do not open till later, there was no way that they could back track back to the travel agency I think.
Not to forget that their flight even got delayed by more than 30 minutes the very next day.

I think they should have just switched taxis and found one that really knew where the travel agency was! Going straight to the airport seems to have been the one move that did them in.

That's what I meant. If teams were given instructions to go to a particular travel agency to pick up tickets and Margie and Luke's taxi driver couldn't find it, then they should have paid their taxi driver and found another one that knew where the travel agency was. There were undoubtedly reasons why they were instructed to go to that travel agency. Gambling on finding a flight at an airport an hour drive away was the fatal mistake. However, if the travel agency had closed while they were lost, then Margie and Luke probably didn't have a choice, though it might have still been smarter to find another travel agency before going to the airport.
Jobby:
^^ They can only visit the travel agency that was provided, I think. Neobie, you mentioned that to me on that night right? Please do confirm again. (sorry for the chatter, peach)
Neobie:
I don't think they were restricted to that one travel agency. But they were given the name and address in the additional information. No telephone numbers though. (They definitely arranged for that one travel agency to stay open late for the teams.)
Triways Travel Network
20 Jalan Tun Mohd Fuad, Taman Tun Dr Ismail, 60000 Kuala Lumpur
Also, unless they stopped printing "Caution: U-Turn ahead" in the first clue of the leg, there was no U-Turn in the first Sri Lanka leg.
Didn't get a very good look at the additional information, but most of it was a list of airlines and connecting countries teams couldn't use. I was a little angry Scoot (a Singapore Airlines subsidiary) was on the same list as Biman Bangladesh Airlines!
Feel free to ask any questions on Analysis and Speculation, and I'll answer them all here in a few days?
Again, thanks to Jobby, Puppet, Peach, and all the others Jobby contacted who helped that night!
