And once again, the team blonde. Oh joy. Actually I think I might like them better than the redheaded cheerleaders though.

final 3.

[SugarB]

They are a bit older than the typical blonde teams of the past. Hmmmm

[King123]

i loved the southern belles last season.. hope they are like that, but better competitors.

[erinjs]

Hopefully older means wiser......

[King123]

hey, the "southern belles" may not have been so wise, but they were some of the nicest people ever on the show.. but very ditzy.

[erinjs]

I think, honestly, that their knowledge that they may have gained being flight attendants will really help them out in this race. But that's just my opinion.

[King123]

I never thought of that.. but Now that I think of it, It would have to..

[erinjs]

Exactly. They will have great knowledge about airports and flights. Big advantage.

[King123]

they might even be able to have special privledges..

well probably not.. oh well.

[erinjs]

I doubt it. But they will know how to find those perfect tickets, they will know airports inside and out. Huge, huge advantage.

[ElleNaturelle]

Agreed. I like these two from what I've read. They seem to be on the show for the right reasons. That's refreshing when you think of the other older, hott women we've seen in the past.

[King123]

with their luck, they will have an American addition, and everything they do is drive.

[jersey721]

Having all that travel experience has to give this team an advantage. Especially, as Erin said, in the airports. Hope it doesn't get to be too unfair. It might be what makes me hate them.

[King123]

there isnt that much it can actually help.

[erinjs]

I think it will greatly help them.

[King123]

Its not going to let their flight earlier..

and TAR always has challenges where the place doesnt open till 8 am or something, so there is always steps were they can catch back up.

[SugarB]

I say tomato, you say tomato....... Sometimes I think someone just likes to disagree to be disagreeing. BUT I tend to think that there has to be at least some advantage for these two in that they know their way around airports, and they know how to find good flights, and they should know how to effectively communicate with airport personnel. It is true that there are many ways to catch up or lose ground, but as far as airports go, I say these two will have somewhat of an advantage.

[Marty]

Yes they do have the advantage in getting flights.

just .... was hoping we wouldn't have one of those blonde teams. It's tired.

[erinjs]

Exactly! They have that knowledge and experience!

[erinjs]

They sure lucked out...

[SugarB]

Good thing they can run.

[King123]

come on girls.. You gotta step it up!

[l1zz1e]

don't seem very smart
