Umm, in Finland there are sleeping cabins for 1-3 people and you need to reserve the whole cabin. No randos.

Ok, I guess I should amend it with "... and aren't prepared to pay 5-10x the flight fare to book a full cabin to avoid randos".

Unless you're travelling in a 4-6 person group, the costs are prohibitive. You need to deal with the creeps.

Just checked the prices for a round trip a while ago to Vienna from Amsterdam by train (Nightjet, full cabin booked) and by plane with KLM for 2 people. Prices were very similar.
