Something new for #AmazingRace #TAR25. A "Save", you can hand over before the end of 9th leg if you are facing elimination and stay in race.

Isn't this just a salvage pass but to save yourself rather than to save another team?

Also, I think this is unlikely.
You are the last team to arrive.
This is a Philmination leg, so I'm sorry to tell you that you have been Philiminated from the race.

Leg 1 somewhere in the Caribbean please! We are way overdue for that!
I would also take a TAR 1 throwback and go to Africa for leg 1.

Hello Philippines!  :yess:
lol, but yeah maybe the Caribbean first.

A Save definitely sounds like a Salvage Pass used as an Express Pass on yourself.

So my dad is in NYC for the taping of #TAR25 start and I've looked at flights leaving from NY area around 5-8am. He said he heard Phil say..

...sandy beaches. There's two flights to Puerto Rico leaving at 5:45am and 7am out of JFK. Possible first #TAR25 destination?

What about the French flag thats flying there?
Do you think it holds significance?
Maybe French Carribean, or even New Caledonia, or French Guiana?

That's not a french flag, that's the New York City flag, as I said earlier.

Salvage Pass has to be used right away. This Save can be used until leg 9.

Save sounds like it would cause production alot of extra room to be accused of being biased as well... but as for country could costa rica be getting a revisit?

Ehh, I don't think this Save twist is real... sounds overpowered, but we'll see.

What I think is real on the other hand is the possible Caribbean destination for leg 1.

It's not a bad idea to consider though. Teams would have to earn it though, like a super hard Fast Forward in the first Leg.  They have the choice to go for it, but would it be worth it?
