I took an overnight bus through Finland as a student. Never again. Less leg space than the cheapest airline, no awesome view like you get from flying, no toilet as I recall (so no reason to get up and stretch legs either), and didn't sleep for a moment. Six hours of boredom while being dead tired and needing to stay seated upright. After arriving, the day consisted of bone-chilling cold strolling through a city while dead on my feet.
Flying is approximately 850km/h as the crow flies compared to the 100 that a bus does across defined roads. If the bus ride is more than three hours and there are no other options like a train, all else being equal, probably I'd opt for wasting more time with airport stuff (getting there and back, waiting an hour on the airport and 30 minutes in the boarding line because they require you to be unnecessarily early) and cause more greenhouse emissions to avoid the disaster that is overnight busses
