I nearly got burned on this. The number of chargers and gadgets I travel with bugs me, so I try to keep it to a minimum. I was traveling for a week and I thought I'd be fine, since the kindle gets several weeks on a charge. Well, I got that dreaded bug where the light doesn't turn off and I didn't know about it since I use a cover. It nearly ran down the battery. I got the low battery warning on the flight home, but it didn't actually die. (Confession: this is because I spent much of the flight watching Real Housewives on the tiny TV.)

Now I think I would carry the USB cord, just to be safe. I already take my laptop anyway.

PS My daughter likes to play games on my iphone for most of the flight. That can run the battery down fast, and goodness knows I need my phone at the end of the flight. I have discovered I can use my laptop as a giant battery, on the plane, and recharge my phone mid-flight!
