It’s actually easier. Airports and runways are so much easier to spot at night than during the day. The straight lights and especially the airport’s beacon. So is other air traffic with their lights and all.

Aside from that, you can just file a flight plan, and a guy on the radio will simply tell you what altitude and direction to go.

There is also GPS. But if you don’t have that, VORs tell you where you’re at as well. Your instruments tell you all you need to know
