Flight Time and Big Easy were eliminated from "The Amazing Race" season 15 on the week 11 episode, November 29, 2009.
Although they were the first team to begin the Road Block, they were the last team to left to finish. After what seemed like hours of trying to complete the puzzle, the team decided it would be easier to take the four-hour penalty, which put them so far behind that everyone had hit the pit stop when Flight Time and Big Easy were just finishing their penalty.
Meghan and Cheyne were the first team to arrive at the pit stop. Their reward was a pair of televisions.
Challenges
The final four teams begin this leg of the race by heading to the Spanish Synagogue in Prague.Meghan and Cheyne were the first team to depart the previous pit stop. At the synagogue the teams found a clue that led them to a museum, which held their Road Block.
The Road Block told one member of each team to go in to a warehouse filled with ringing phones. The object was to find the five phones with someone on the other line, write down the letter the person on the other line game them, and then unscramble the letters to discover the name Franz.
Brian and Erika were the last team to depart the pit stop, but before they could perform the Road Block, they had to complete a Speed Bump because they were the last team at a non-elimination leg last week. The team had to find the M1 Lounge, make an absinthe drink and drink it.
After their Road Block the teams had to travel to a kryo-therapy room. They stripped down to near nothing and stayed in a room that was 180 degrees below zero for two minutes. Apparently, the kryo-therapy rooms are a big hit among Czech athletes. I wasn't sure anyone would make it through the two minutes. Honestly, when they all went in to the room it sounded like someone was torturing/killing them.
Meghan and Cheyne had completed the challenge and were already off to their next clue before any of the teams had completed the Road Block. The Detour at the Charles Bridge had the team choose between building a huge, clay figure and carrying it to the synagogue or carry 30 beers through the town square to a rowdy bar.
