From Zap2it, some disappointing news that looks to confirm this rumor.

All three teams face a formidable course as they find themselves
having to make their way from Vietnam to Hawaii and, finally, onto
the final city. While two teams have safely booked flights back to
the United States, one team panics as they find themselves unable to
leave Vietnam.

While the rumor said Tokyo, its very possible that's where the connecting flight went through.

Ok - just because someone saw T/I and F/Z on that plane it doesn't mean K/G aren't on the same plane! They could have pulled one of those "sit us as close to the front as possible" bits with the gate agent! The teams rarely sit all together on flights, so I am not completely buying that it means K/G are out of it!

What's a "zipper line"? Is it that deal where they hold onto the handle and slide along the high wire-type thing? There's a quick shot of it in the preview, and it looks like it's running through a waterfall.

I'm hoping that if this spoiler is true, then K&G were just on an earlier plane, but the website says:

While two other Teams have safely booked flights back to the United States, one Team panics when they find themselves unable to leave Vietnam. [Please don't let it be K&G. On the other hand, perhaps this snafu happens during the first (non-elimination) round of the finale.]

It also says:

Facing a difficult challenge, one Team member bursts into tears. [Gotta be Flo. What else is new?]

One person's partner sides with a competing Team against that person in a stressful situation. [Please, please, please let it be Zach turning on Flo!]

I can't see Terri or Ian siding with another team at this point of the game when no one would give them the time of day before, and I just can't see K/G working against each other. It has to be Flo or Zach. Flo could do it just out of pure spite or even stupidity, and Zach could do it out of frustration. I hope if it is one of them it gets them elimated. I can pull for the brothers or for Ian and Terri. I like them both and would be happy for either team.

If the brothers were on the SAME flight, wouldn't they have their camera crew there as well? Seems like it would be hard to hide.

I hope they were on an earlier flight.

Ack. I think it sounds like Oh Brother is trailing behind because of the flight situation. Hopefully they'll find tickets at the last minute, or catch up later somehow.

I have the sinking feeling that Teri and Ian win, though. The editing in last week's episode makes me nervous.

With Derek and Drew out, I just don't care who wins now. I just hope that when it is over, Zach sends Flo packing out of his life.

an article about tonights final ep....it has some spoilers about the ending location and one of the detours, but not the winner....it's a great review as well..

and another glowing article, from USA Today:

and on the front page of tvguide.com. there's a poll: Did Amazing Race 3 live up to your expectations? Right now the vote is yes, by an 80-20 margin.

The last time my paper listed ratings for the week prior, TAR had outrated Survivor in that week!!

Thanks for the articles, Wilsonatmd. This season of AR has been more interesting than Survivor. I really don't want Ian & Teri to win. I guess I'll pull for the brothers, but it doesn't sound good for them.

Now....who to pick....hmmmm.

So it turns out that the "spoiler" in the OP was misleading. It was accurate in what it included, of course, but since it left out the third team, it gave the wrong impression of what was actually happening. They were all on that flight.

Goes to show that "spoilers" must be taken with a huge chunk of salt. Like, a salt lick.
