Completely flat as in doors would not open, steering lock not releasing, no lights on dashboard... Or flat as in engine not turning over? Could it have been just enough power at airport to start and not too far to drive home so it never charged? Previously..

Batteries do have a tendency to just die sometimes, even new ones. Other option is current leak somewhere and last is alternator gone (causing a current leak or not charging although for that you should get a warning light).

Check for damp/water in the near side rear compartment where the sat nav and radio units are.
