Pros

Usually the cheapest tickets. Fewer delays (the plane spent the night at the airport). The whole day ahead upon arrival.

Cons

Sleepless night before departure. Need to go to the airport at night (taxi is more expensive). By lunch you will be exhausted and may sleep half the day in the hotel.

Advice

Take a morning flight if you are an early bird or flying nearby. For long flights, it is better to get enough sleep and fly during the day.
