You can use Google Play to buy books from Google (there are also some free books there too). Once you have done so, remember to download the book to the device or devices you want to read on. Just buying the book does not download it to the device, it just stores it online in your account. If you have a connection, this is fine, as you can read it from the cloud. If you do not have a connection, you will not be able to read it in airplane mode. So remember to download it.
You can add books from elsewhere to your Google Books library and they will be stored in the cloud and can be downloaded to whatever device you use to access Google Books (tablet, phone, computer). At some point, you may want to use another e-book reader application but the reader in Google Books is good enough for what you say you want to do.
Have a good trip.
