Absolutely not an issue, apart from the cost of course. I started off doing it via BA, but got tired of late departures and late arrivals.

I would mention I flew Business Class each time. If I was doing the same weekly route in Economy, my views may well have been different.
Thanks for this , I reckon I would do a day flight economy but always do a night flight business.
