My personal experience (US) is that most airplanes have chargers nowadays. However, the charger is very loose, and I could never make my charger fixed in the socket.

If OP could find a good socket, then this lucky person could enjoy 5 hour gaming with no interruption :)

I might be talking out of my arse, but you could bring a toothpick with you and try removing any fluff/grime from the socket before plugging in. Worked for my phone when the usbc charger wasn't secure.

I haven't tried this personally but maybe if you use a short extension cord it would work better? This should remove the weight of the DC adapter pulling on the connection to the outlet

An extension cord will be very helpful, to remove the force on the adapter.

However, the weight of my DC adapter itself was enough to pull the adapter out of the socket.
