Something to eat, slowly over the next hour and a half or two hours, or just defer that to whenever you feel like (I had it five hours in, asking it to be set aside). Few drinks more, couple of movies, about 5 hours in. Sleep. 13 hours in, wake up, have breakfast, maybe one more more movie. See if the last movie possible. Or watch landing.
I allocate a good 30-60 minutes to chat to various members of the cabin crew (when they’re not busy), especially the female ones.
