I wish that the US TAR could head to my home city of Jakarta. We haven't had a fast forward in a while, prob a good fast forward is to eat Indomie Pedas Mampus!!

It'd be cool to see another route (a la S13) where they travel to South America first and then head west to either Australia/New Zealand or Mainland Asia/Japan.

I agree. I'd like to see more usage of the trans-oceanic Southern Hemisphere flights (SCL-AKL, SYD-JNB, JNB-GRU, etc.), but it does require planning the race route strategically around the destinations and flight times.
