Overnight

Overnight= (1) lasting or operating through the whole night: ‘An overnight journey’

Overnight is used as an adverb and adjective (NOT as a noun): ‘I missed the connecting flight and had to stay at the airport overnight.’ ‘If we travel overnight, we’ll be there in time.’ ‘The overnight coach arrives in London at six in the morning.’
