COP is only active for 12 hours after the Tesla vehicle has been parked. To extend COP you have to unlock, then lock the doors (you can do this using the Tesla app.)

Sentry Mode is actually recording at all times, it’s just continuously deleting the video unless an event occurs. This is why it consumes so much battery.
Sentry mode is recording all of the time but the reason that Sentry Mode uses so much power is that the Tesla vehicle remains powered on, the processors are using 230W. The camera(s) power consumption is only a small part of the power being used.
Similar trip last week out of BWI, parked MY in garage in 60F temps for 6 days. Sentry Mode was off. 227 miles when we left, 228 (not a typo) when we returned. Likely due to temp variation, but point is very little drain when car sleeps. Enjoy your trip.
I do not disable sentry at airport parking.
Our LR MY loses about 6-7% a day with sentry on. I always have plenty of battery left to get home for any trip up to 7 days (beyond that I would not park at the airport anyway). I have never even dropped to the 20% level where sentry is disabled.
Of course, YMMV — I only need 11% to get home.
