    Do airplanes have power plug-ins?

    This flight to Costa Rica is 7 hours. I've never been on a flight that long before, I hate flying. I am going to go nuts so I'm trying to think of things I can do. So far I have MP3 player and movies... however, the laptop will only run for a couple hours on battery. I think I've heard some airlines have AC plugs, where can I get more information about this?

      how long is a piece of string?


      What airline?
      what flight# or aircraft type?
      What cabin class?


      Generally, anything smaller than a 767 won't have power for you to use anywhere. This includes 727,737,757,767(in some cases), a320,a330(in some cases)

      Otherwise, depending on the above class/airline ... there will be a thing called empower where you need a special adapter ($20) or straight up 110 power plugs. Empower systems won't power widescreen notebooks.

                    Books & magazines are good for power-free entertainment. You can get universal laptop batteries for a longer computer fix.

                      You need a new laptop
                      My samsum m40 plus came with 2 batteries (on default) and has power for more than 10 hours
                      no need for power plugs (btw.. I can max 12 hours when the 17" screen is dark)
