I did similar once at BAH during the Eyjafjallajokull ash scare. We were on the ground for hours on the way from DOH to LHR and we did not take off until about 5am so I put the seat back and went to sleep. Woke up for take off and then back to sleep again and in London fully refreshed.
Indeed - at least there might be some food left! The poor souls in the back! And the CC who have to deal with the stressed out pax too!
