The cable has an emPower plug on the end. A cigarette lighter adapter slides over it for the other kind. So, if you get any airline power adapter, you'll be set for US and for other airlines, such as AA, that use the other style. (You have to make sure, in using a cigarette lighter outlet, that you don't pull out just the emPower plug and leave the adapter sleeve behind in the outlet.).
If the MAN flights have AC power on board I am *so* jealous. London-PHL used to have it and now it's gone.
For adaptors, always worth looking at the Teleadapt and Expansys sites.
