TAR 30: Pre-Race Speculation
Maanca:
Well, you know then if they're starting in New York, that means...expect a Los Angeles-area final leg. Because every season for almost the past 20 seasons has had to start or end in LA :P

I think the only viable options are Canada or they catch an Evening flight and they'll be in Europe the next morning. They could fly to Asia, there are nunerous direct flights to Taipei, Tokyo ect or West to Vancouver.

They could just as easily connect through LA or SF too.
But some Asian/Oceania cities with direct-ish (some stopovers) flights: Beijing, Delhi, Mumbai, Tokyo, Seoul, Hong Kong, Taipei, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Manila, Brisbane.

Come on now. There's no way they are heading to Asia from NYC. They wouldn't connect through LA. The starting line itself would be in LA. We know how budget conscious the production has gotten. I will chug a bottle of sriacha if they head to Asia first!

Just think of any tv show you follow and imagine 2 of the contestants/characters as a team on the amazing race. That’s what it feels like. It’s no different than seeing Survivor contestants on there or other Minor celebs that bring a following (YouTube, Sports, etc. )

I am a fan of ORDINARY people doing EXTRAORDINARY things. I personally have zero desire to see contestants from other shows here...but I understand the economic/rating implications so...

The BB crossovers have never increased ratings for TAR on any season. Like a friend told me once, it's just CBS forcing brand-building at another show's expense.

Remember that flights from JFK/Newark to Asia are only about 1-2 hours longer than flights from Los Angeles depending on destintion. Flights from LAX to HKG are 15 hours and JFK to HKG is 16 hours.
