Why each option

To maximize device uptime during long travel, enabling Airplane mode is best as it disables power-consuming wireless radios, extending battery life.

ABluetooth

Bluetooth is a wireless communication feature that consumes battery power, and keeping it enabled would reduce, not extend, the working time.

BAirplane modeCorrect

Airplane mode disables all wireless communication features (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular, GPS) on a device. By turning off these power-intensive radios, it significantly conserves battery life, allowing the user to work for a longer duration while traveling.

CWireless

"Wireless" is a general term for features like Wi-Fi and cellular data; keeping these enabled consumes significant battery power and would reduce working time.

DKeyboard backlight

A keyboard backlight consumes battery power and offers no benefit to extending the duration a user can work, especially if the goal is power conservation.
