BourkieBoy:
Silly question I know but:
When will the season be filmed?

Sometime between October 2016 & January 2017.

--- Quote from: cbacbacba1 on August 15, 2016, 08:07:19 AM ---I speculate (and hope that) they will visit the following countries in a westard route
Total : 9 Countries, 4 Continents (2 New countries)
Leg 1 : Melbourne, Australia
Leg 2 : Rural place in Australia (Cairns / Darwin)
Australia is way overdue to be visited (12 seasons gap since TAR 18). Usually the first leg will be in a place where air travel is more convenient from the US.
Therefore, I think they will choose a big city to host Leg 1, before going to a rural place to show the adventurous Australia.
In this case, Melbourne is probably the first choice.
Leg 3 : Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea
The new country for this season. A good showcase of Huli culture, alike the New Zealand native culture in TAR 13
Leg 4 : Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Leg 5 : Vientiane, Laos
Cambodia is way overdue again (season 15), plus the canceled visit to Laos from season 19, forming the tropic Asia legs for this season
Leg 6 : Mumbai, India
Leg 7 : Rural India
India is always great place to host chaotic legs, especially in the big city of Mumbai, which itself is not visited for a long long period of time (last was season 12)
Rural India is only visited in TAR 4 where Tian & Jaree broke their record. This leg could also be the Emmy - winning episode which provides "inspirational message" for the audience
Leg 8 : Helsinki, Finland
Icy scenery to replace the commonly-used Switzerland
Leg 9 : Budapest, Hungary
City with beautiful night view, can host a good night leg, like Berlin in season 22
Leg 10 : Barcelona, Spain
Leg 11 : Madrid, Spain
Return to some countries that are commonly visited to end the race
Train travel is to be arranged when traveling from Barcelona to Spain, in order to shorten the gap between teams (like Shanghai > Xian in season 6)
Leg 11 is usually hosted in place where air travel is convenient enough to get racers back to US easily
Madrid definitely suits this case

I think I would choose Fiji over Papua New Guinea
Moreover,the intended Laos leg in TAR 19 can be used
And also,I think Brunei can be an option if they visit Asia

Leg 3 : Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea

I HIGLY doubt they´ll go there....
--- Quote ---With only 350,000 people living in Port Moresby, this city still gets to enter the top 10 dangerous cities in the world. Theft, rape, murders and auto theft happen on a daily basis, and it is recommended not to use public transportation. Beside all these concern reasons, the entire area is submitted to seismic activities, landslides and tsunamis.
