A little attention to grammar may help, some punctuation to at least make the string of words comprehensible.

Make and model number (should be on the bottom).

Standard USB = 5v 500mA output. Possibly not enough to charge and run your device.

What voltage does the player need on the jack plug 9v - 12v possibly?

Have you lost the charger?

Did you notice it is only you that didn't comprehend ?

The player is a Blaupunkt model nopd6071.
It is indeed a 9volt and I do have the charger, however the battery life is only 2 hours and the flight is 8 hours, so was looking to keep it charged.
There is no mains power on the airplane so I need to look at alternatives.

Hi,

maybe a power pack would give you a few extra hours.

Yes, a power pack with a cable like this (** check exact size AND polarity of 9v connector)

Yes, power packs are probably your best option

Most of us understood because we - not you - were prepared to make the effort. Perhaps Victoria could help with your language skills.

The fact is, for everyone who took the trouble to answer, two others probably moved straight on to the next thread on the basis that someone who can't write an intelligible question probably won't understand the answer.
