More phantom flight booking.
Hobart, TAS, Australia (HBA)----->Montevideo, Uruguay (MVD)
Why not just fly South over Antarctica? Nope, every flight is a minimum of 2 stops. And the first direction is not South - it's north to Sydney:

Total flight time including layovers is around 30 hours, and it'll cost you at today's prices around 6,000-7000 dollars.
Ball Earther excuse: Uh - it's too cold to fly over Antarctica! Yeah. I read that at Wikipedia. See!
Flat Earther: But you can visit the South Pole yourself - the very South Pole? How do you get there?
Ball Earther: Uh...fly? *experiences extreme cognitive dissonance*
Flat Earther:
Ball Earther 2: I went to the South Pole! I paid 48K for a trip!

Flat Earther: So you can fly to the South Pole and take a guided tour for around 48K, but umm - you can't actually fly over it *because it's too cold*. Is it less cold on the moon? In space??
Flat Earther: I'm sorry you wasted so much money. You do know that the place they say is the "Exact South Pole" where they have a cone set up is actually just ceremonial right? It's even in their brochure. They took you for a ride, literally.
Ball Earther: Screw you! Star Wars! Star Trek! Gravity, Refraction, Relativity, and Einstein! We've landed on Mars! Mankind is taking GIANT LEAPS! Space is the final frontier! We are going to MASTER THE UNIVERSE!!!!
Flat Earther: Sigh. Yeah, so I've heard. I don't suppose you'd like some evidence that that bs footage you say is from Mars is actually just landscape from right here on earth with a bit of red tint added?
Ball Earther: Are you flipping KIDDING ME? Of course it isn't you crazy conspiracy theorist!
Ball Earther : You people are complete MORONS! We are on the cutting edge of space exploration and it's MORONS like you who want to take us back to the stone ages!
Flat Earther: Actually, we are just interested in the truth. No-one willingly accepts the flat earth position unless they have been convinced it is true. We know we are a small minority and many people will dislike us.
By the way - do you have a telescope? They are cheaper these days and you can zoom really really far. Since we only see one face of the moon and some Astronauts supposedly landed on it (on the light side) - and planted a flag - why not just zoom in on it and find it? The flag and all the other space stuff we supposedly left up there.
Ball Earther: *runs away screaming!!!!* " Luke! Save me, Neil Degrasse Tyson....space movies....Einstein!.....Nicola Tesla (wait, no, not him)....someone aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............."
