How does LrC work offline? When I am offline I get prompted every 5 or 6 days to connect to the internet and login. This is not long enough for me to use LrC on my laptop when traveling to remote areas. Is there any way to extend the time it asks for an internet connection?

If you have an annual subscription, (which I believe is the only option for LrC), you can use it offline for as long as 129 days.

To get the longest possible offline period, sign out and back in just before you start travelling.

As others have said, make sure to be signed in when you leave home.

Creative Cloud for individual

(Varies from 5 to 30 days)* + 99 days of offline use

After 30 days*, a dialog box requests an online connection.
You can dismiss the dialog box; the next reminder shows up after 30 days.
After 30 days + 69 days, the dialog box appears daily.
After 30 days + 99 days, one final offline product launch is available.

If you follow the advice from @GoldingD , you should get about 30 days of LrC working offline, after you were last working in LrC online.

Consider your Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop app sign-in. Are you, for some reason, signing out? If so, stop doing that. Signing out deactivates the local copy of Adobe products, including LrC. If you do that, then you need to sign back in to reactivate the apps.
