Like any traveller, you could get someone to light in your house.

Rav Scheinberg ztzvk”l put a notice up in his yeshiva, that yungerleit should get their wives to light for them, while they stayed in yeshiva learning. (I believe the notice went up every year and the yungerleit went home to light.)
Sefardi bochurim indeed don’t light in yeshiva, but are yotzei with their parents’ lighting at home.
There are other examples of people being yotze with someone lighting in their house while they are away.

If someone is moving house that may be different. Then they have no bayis, and perhaps no chiyuv.

<joke>(if it was a chabad flight, does it need a menora on the roof?</joke> )
