Would anyone know why the battery will not charge past 89%? I let the battery drain to the single digits then fully charged it several times and tried different OSes with no success.

It is "as expected" - I can't find a link, nor have I paid particular attention to this issue, but IIRC it is something to do with working out the maximum capacity of the battery. So my attitude is sit back, enjoy the trip, and at some stage in the future a full battery may have more charge than a full battery today.
