Can you plug a laptop in on an airplane to be charged?
On "http://www.seatguru.com/airlines/United… website it says that the power type is an "AC Power", I'm not really sure what that is. But does that mean if I purchase an AC Adapter for my computer I will be able to charge it on the airline? I am flying from America to Spain. Thank You

Answer 1 :
Yes, that is what it means. The plugs on Boeing aircraft and on Airbus aircraft made for american carriers accept standard two prong USA and European plugs. Double check the location of your seat to make sure there are plugs where you are sitting. For example, Delta A330 aircraft only have plugs in the first 20 rows of coach. Yo should also be aware that there are limitations on the power output. I have a 90 watt power pack for my Dell computer and I cannot charge it on many planes because the power output is rated for 50 watts or less. Have a great flight
Answer 2 :
AC power is the standard outlet there is everywhere, such as in your home, or at work. Your standard laptop charger can be charged in one of those outlets. There is no need to purchase anything else. Have a great trip
