Four more ships call once: Amadea, Viking Eden (listed as 招商伊敦), Heritage Adventurer and Regatta. Two berths: Norwegian Jade and Viking Eden use Kinjo Pier berths 80–81; every other ship uses Garden Pier No.3, except Mitsui Ocean Sakura on 16 December, at Kinjo because Asuka II holds Garden No.3 that day. Many Japanese-ship calls are turnarounds, with passengers boarding or leaving in Nagoya.
