Laptop battery life

Hi Guys! 

 

I am flying to Zante today (Greek island) and I was wondering what I can do to save the most amount of battery power possible for the plane journey! I plan to play football manager half way through the flight. The total flight time is 3hrs and 1/2

Turn on power saving and you will be good to go. I don't think football manager needs much power.

 

By the way does the laptop use integrated/discrete graphics?

hmmm, if you can figure out a way to use the integrated gpu instead you will save a bit of power.

Not much else I can think of, just make sure nothing else is using the GPU by checking the control panel.
