does anyone know what days the Dream Sleeper bus operates? (Tokyo to Osaka)

I’m planning a trip for next March and I’m trying to find out what days of the week the dream sleeper bus operates (from Tokyo ikebukuro station to Osaka) on and I was hoping someone on here might know.

Im trying to find out if i can book a seat on the bus on Tuesday March 28th through Wednesday the 29th. Since the bus can only be booked a month in advance, all dates in March are grayed out, but I’ve looked at the available bookings online and as of right now only Fridays and Sundays are open with the exception of November 2nd, which is a Wednesday.

I can’t find anywhere online that states whether or not the bus operates solely on Fridays and Sundays, and im hoping that the other days of the week are just booked out.

If you have any experience with the bus at all, ant help is appreciated, as im panicking slightly! Thanks for the response in advance!

  1. About the only thing I can think of is to check regularly to see if there is ever availability during the week.

    But to be honest, it’s more expensive than taking the shinkansen, so for not a lot much more, you could go by shinkansen and get a night in a business hotel.
