    there is really no other thing but conserve battery power or, if possible, ask the flight attendant if their are any spare business class seats and you could use th e power port to charge the laptop. The attendants on Singapore Air and Cathay on the flights i have been on have been nice enough to do so and hopefully for you to.

    Well, you could always look to find the plane your flying and find it on another airline. At least it would be better than nothing...
