Where it sits
33.4°S, 70.8°W puts SCL in the southern hemisphere, 3,713 km from the equator and 6,294 km from the South pole.
Of the 661 airports on this site it is the 631st most northerly, which makes it the 31st most southerly.
Straight through the middle
Straight down through the centre of the Earth comes out at 33.4°N, 109.2°E — 124 km from Xi'an Xianyang (XIY) in China, 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 Governor Francisco Gabrielli (MDZ), 196 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.
