    Furthest I have been from my birth place is CHC.
    EBLC-CHC: 18,745 km

    Along the same line, I have been looking for the pair of airports to which I have been with the biggest distance between them.
    So far, LIM-REP is my best: 19828km. Only 200km short of antipodal points. I will need to keep looking if I can do better

    Edit:
    Found one better by 1km: BOG-CGK: 19829km

    Thanks Savage25. My antipodal city is in the northeastern part of Ecaudor! Not sure where the nearest airport is, though.

    MEL is the farthest I've been from my current home city as well, at 9,785mi, or 15,747km. Antipodal (or close to it) city: PER.

    When I was based in SIN, farthest I'd been was MEX, at 10,321mi, 16,610km.

    OK, now I'm living near HAJ (Hannover/Germany)- my hole would end up roundabout 1500 miles southeast of New Zealand's southern tip. And no, I haven't been there . Have been to Auckland though, does this count?

    If I would set it up where I was born, I would end in the middle of the northern Atlantic- yet another place where SQ doesn't fly me, so I don't wanna go there

    Home in Nottingham (via MAN) to both Hobart (AU) and Christchurch (NZ), great circle mileage 10,877 and 11,709 miles respectively (17,505 km and 18,844 km).

    According to Savage25's link, my "hole" would end up being about 650 miles South East of Christchurch, right in the Southern Ocean, so reckon that's the antipodal match (ok, closely beaten by Dunedin and Invercargill, but only by about 50 miles)

    If I dig a very deep hole, where will I end up?
