For furthest west, it was an even closer tie between Seattle and San Francisco; Seattle is a tad further east than San Francisco (using the Golden Gate Bridge as my bearing, since I know I was there), but I took a ferry from Seattle to some island once (though I think I didn't set foot on the island; we just went there and back on the ferry), and assuming tht was Bainbridge Island, that's very close to San Francisco in longitude, so it's hard to say which ended up bringing me further west.
Interesting that San Diego showed up in two records: furthest south and furthest from birthplace.
For furthest north, I thought it would be Sigtuna, Sweden, where I went for a school mathematics competition, but it seems that Arlanda airport, where we landed, is a tad further north still. (Unfortunately, I don't remember where my host family lived, only that the school where the competition took place was in Sigtuna; so it's possible that I went a little further north still.)

(Though the flight was actually to New York, which is 6,500 kilometers, so maybe the only 6 hours flight confused me ;))

I measured by creating a map in google maps and inserted a straight line - it automatically shows the length of the line.
