Turtles cannot fly anywhere. They cannot fly at all.
They fly.
north pole
Not exactly North Pole to South Pole, but from the Arctic Circle to the Antarctic Circle and vise versa.

North pole
No. If you fly due south, you will not reach the north pole. Though you may start your journey pointing due south, once you fly past the south pole, assuming that you did not change direction, you would begin flying north (because the Earth is round). While you would eventually reach the north pole, you would not be flying due south when you did.
Robert Falcon Scott
It is impossible to fly direct to the north pole but if you could it would take 7 hours or there abouts.
This question can be answered in two ways. In 1954, Louise Boyd privately chartered a DC-4 and crew to fly her over the North Pole. Which made her the first woman to be flown over a pole. Or In 1971, Sheilia Scott flew her single-engined Piper Comanche registered G-ATOY and named Myth Too, single handedly over the North Pole, Making her the first woman to fly over the North Pole.
Half the world away (8000 miles as a neutrino would fly, 12,500 miles as a bird would fly.)
If you were a crow and could fly from the north pole to the south pole, you would fly more than 20,000 K. Depending on your route, you may be able to cut a few thousand kilometers from your journey, if you were only interested in touching the edge of the Antarctic continent.
