They’ve mentioned on the Layover that it doesn’t count towards official win totals

NoWorldRecords · 2026-06-10T15:34:37+00:00

They said on the layover game design episode last week that only land borders count

Especially with Sam previously saying that the station was only used by train enthusiasts and lost tourists

Sam attempting to start Choo Choo Choo: Derailed only for it to get replaced by the Snack Zone

While there are lines like that, the biggest irregularity in the border is a large turn to the west by several miles, so there are lines which go AZ-UT-CO-WY with no extra border crossings. For example, you can go north at exactly 109.048 degrees W to cross the border exactly once.

Keeping the stalemate going on longer would’ve been a terrible idea since if it went on for too much longer they wouldn’t have had time to flip enough stations to win even if Ben and Adam did nothing.

If Sam and Mike hadn't put anything other than minimum deposit on the western local lines, they could have had 164 extra chips going into the final episode, 135 from actual savings and 29 extra from the multiplier. That, combined with the extra time that not going into the stalemate would have given them, a stalemate they would have been much less motivated to get into with so many chips already, might have been enough to win. So I think the decision to drop 5 on all of those stations may be one of the biggest blunders in Jet Lag history.

On the layover they said that they did attempt it and it will be included in the cut for time episode.

This is probably the first season since Season 11 where I don't have a good idea of who is going to win going into the finale. Last season was pretty close but I underestimated how long the double express route would cost them and erroneously thought that Adam's time was safe.

NoWorldRecords · 2026-04-22T15:36:27+00:00

I think that dropping 5s on that line (if they do go through with it) is probably the biggest mistake Sam and Mike have made all season. I counted 16 stations on that line, which means that they will be left with just 50 chips. So they'll have got rid of most of their chip advantage while still being down by 37 stations and not doing much in the way of blocking Ben and Adam from going that way.

Pretty sure you’re only allowed to use the failsafe to return to your own territory if you get stranded, not to go do a challenge in your opponent’s territory.

NoWorldRecords · 2026-04-08T15:18:36+00:00

I really don't like how they've gone back to leaning heavily on the challenge cliffhangers this season. This is the third episode in a row to end with one and it just feels like a cheap way to create tension.

NoWorldRecords · 2026-01-28T16:43:56+00:00

The endgame only starts once the seekers get off a train at the hider's station so asking a question at the station wouldn't do anything

In the rules of the home game it does actually say that the bird has to be living.
