Where it sits
12.0°S, 77.1°W puts LIM in the southern hemisphere, 1,337 km from the equator and 8,671 km from the South pole.
Of the 661 airports on this site it is the 559th most northerly, which makes it the 103rd most southerly.
Straight through the middle
Straight down through the centre of the Earth comes out at 12.0°N, 102.9°E — 217 km from U-Tapao–Rayong–Pattaya (UTP) in Thailand, which is about as close to a true antipodal airport pair as this table gets.
What’s near it
The closest other airport on this site is Capitán FAP Carlos Martínez de Pinillos (TRU), 489 km away in a straight line. Nothing else on this site is within 100 km.

What’s on this page, and what isn’t
Every figure here is computed from the airport’s coordinates and the rest of the table — distances, bearings, ranks, the antipode. Nothing is written by hand, so nothing on it is a half-remembered fact about a terminal that was rebuilt in 2019.
Which also means what you won’t find: no passenger figures, no terminal maps, no airline lists, no live departures. Orbit is a logbook, not a flight tracker, and a page that invented those would be worse than one that leaves them out.
