My iPad Air (4th G.) won't charge.
iPad will not charge and is down to 1%. Have tried alternate cables and spouse's laptop adapter. Is this a sign of major problem needing pro shop attention?

As described, either your Power Adapter is faulty - or your battery has perhaps failed and will require replacement:
If your iPad won't charge – Apple Support
Charge and monitor the iPad battery - Apple Support
iPad Repair – Official Apple Support
We are also seeing frequent reports of issues charging iPad Air4 in high ambient temperatures. If this applies to you, try charging in a cooler location.
Assuming that the iPad remains functional, you would be well advised to directly contact Apple Support - and request a remote battery test. The result of the test may better inform your next steps.
You will find the Get Support link at top-right of this page. Alternatively, you can open a support case using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed on your iPad, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

As a further alternative, you might visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store - where the technicians will be able to test and assess you iPad.
