2 calls ahead, Nov 2026–Feb 2027: the pattern, and the plan for each kind of day

Seabourn Encore uses the Harumi Passenger Terminal, not the Odaiba terminal the big ships use, and keeps the same hours on both upcoming calls, 08:00 to 19:00. Harumi has no station: the day begins on the Toei bus to Ginza, or the free shuttle to Tokyo Station when the ship runs one.

3 Nov and 27 Feb: off the ship from 08:30, back at the gangway by 17:30, 9 usable hours.
