      But they are limited interactions that dont scratch the surface, he just for directions all the time. And he rarely does anything exciting, its like the most boring parts of the journey, running through airports, train stations and looking for taxis.

You're kind to all and your generosity is off the charts. I am not all the way through your past videos but I am getting there but this latest installment has caught my attention. Safe Journey and thank you for the hours of entertainment and virtual exploring that you provide!! I wish I was a bit younger (63) because a no money challenge would be right in my wheelhouse :) Thanks again

  • @zach4638
    @zach4638 2 роки тому +8

    Ok so after staring at google flights for a while I think I was able to figure out his route. Ok to start out we could rule out all flights that transit through the United States. I also eliminated Canada as an option because it seems that all flights from Canada to South America fly through either Toronto or Montreal, which would be a large waste of time. I also used him saying that he was getting on a long flight and this poll as hints that he is going to South Africa.
    There is a flight from Paris to Johannesburg that leaves at 9:15 pm, which lines up what he says in the video. This flight arrives at 9:00 am, leaving him enough time to leave the airport and return for the 4:30 flight to Sydney, Australia.
    This flight would arrive in Sydney at 1:30 pm on day three. This would line up for the 9:30 pm flight to Tokyo that arrives on day four. He would then have about 12 hours to transfer from Tokyo Haneda airport to Tokyo Narita airport for the 5:00 pm flight to Mexico City. This is the ONLY flight I can find that flies from east Asia to Mexico.
    He would arrive in Mexico at 2:00 pm STILL on day four, with about a nine hour layover until the 11:00 pm flight to Buenos Aires, Argentina. This flight would land at 11:00 am on day five. Ushuaia, Argentina is the usual stepping off point to most Antarctic trips from South America, so I am assuming he is going there. Unfortunately it looks like the next direct flight is not until 4:00 am day six.
    As for how he plans to get to Antarctica I have no clue. I looked at Antarctic cruises leaving from Antarctica, but these take more than a day to get there, and we are not exactly sure of the timing of his trip anyway. After studying his options and limitations, this is definitely the route I would have taken if I was doing this.

    As a seasoned traveller I just wanted to make sure you know there's much easier ways to get to Paris. Firstly Eurostar is cheaper and quicker than flying. Except I guess if you're coming from Manchester. In Paris CDG there's a shuttle fast train that takes you to Gare du Nord and is cheap and quicker than risking the busy roads!
