The port has not published Riviera's berth in Nagoya for 25 Apr; ships here normally use Kinjo Pier berths 80–81 (金城ふ頭80・81号) for the big international ships (Norwegian Jade, Navigator of the Seas) — or Garden Pier No.3 by the aquarium for most Japanese-market and smaller luxury ships. The berth is set per call; mid-size ships have used both. Berths can be reassigned on busy days; the daily programme has the final word.
