I have an upcoming trip with an extremely long-haul flight so I'm looking to pack my Steam deck with as much as I can to try to make it more bearable.

JUST emulation? Why? Battery life?

I mean, you could always just download a full set of nes and snes roms and go to town on anything that interests you.

For non emulation games, and especially if recharging power is available - factorio is surprisingly good at running on low end hardware and if that’s your type of game, you can play for a very very long time.

I find roguelikes to also be good for trips - not necessarily in one super long session due to frustration-but good from a “play for a while, put it down, pick it up and play some more”. If you like playing cards definitely check out balatro. Also vampire survivors can play forever on a battery charge and is surprisingly addictive.
