Russian billionaire buys world’s first private icebreaker

April 20, 2019 by Forimmediaterelease

One of the top 50 richest Russians, banker Oleg Tinkov, wants to present what he calls a first private icebreaker to the public next year, before the €100 million vessel sets sail to the Antarctic among other destinations.

Founder and owner of Tinkoff Bank, worth $2.2 billion, is going to show off the SeaExplorer 77, the newest addition to his pet-project, La Dacha, at the major global yacht show in Monaco as early as 2020.

After the presentation, the superyacht will head to the gems of the Indian Ocean, the Seychelles and Madagascar, Russia’s scenic Kamchatka peninsula and Alaska, before challenging its reinforced icebreaker hull in Antarctica in late 2021 and the beginning of 2022.

“It is yachting, but a completely different one,” Tinkov explained. “It’s about exploring, but not about drinking martini and showing off in Saint-Tropez.”

The ‘icebreaker’ cost the billionaire more than €100 million (US$112 million). The banker wants to enjoy it himself for around 20 weeks per year and plans to lease it for the rest for €690,000 per week.

The entrepreneur says he was the first to order such a vessel. In fact, it is an expedition yacht, which can break ice up to 40 centimeters thick and maintain autonomy at sea for up to 40 days. The 77-meter vessel, offering luxury accommodation for up to 12 guests in addition to the crew, also features two helicopter hangars, a dive center and decompression chamber, and carries a submersible, two snow scooters and waverunners.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates has already showed interest in the luxury sea adventure, and wants to have a three-week long charter, while a Russian businessmen from the Forbes list, whose name Tinkov did not reveal, wants to rent the boat for six months.

Any WOW Air reservation may not materialize: Airline has major problems

March 25, 2019 by Forimmediaterelease

“Bummer that WOW Air is potentially going under – had a very flawless experience with them. But does this mean fewer tourists in Iceland?”, a disappointed passenger posted to twitter.

Icelandic tourism professionals did not yet comment on the hopeless sounding situation of Wow Air.  The airline was founded by an Icelandic entrepreneur, Skúli Mogensen. It first flew to Paris on 31 May 2012 and later that year took over an existing airline, Iceland Express.

WOW Air based in Iceland is fighting for survival. On Sunday evening rival IcelandAir, the potential rescuer announced  that Icelandair Group has decided that its possible involvement in WOW air’s operations, as announced on 20 March 2019, will not materialize. Therefore, all discussions between the parties have been canceled.

Today Indigo Partners Will Not be Investing in WOW Air According to a recent statement made by the company, Indigo will not be negotiating further with WOW Air and instead will be opening talks with Icelandair Group.

The 9:30am flight from London Gatwick to Reykjavik in Iceland was canceled this morning at short notice, with more flights canceled later in the day according to its website.

Wow Air then issued its own statement saying: A majority of WOW air Bond Holders and other creditors of WOW air are in advance discussions with the aim of reaching an agreement on a voluntary restructuring including an agreement of converting current debt into equity and fund the company towards long term sustainability. Further information will be given tomorrow.

Within hours, Wow Air started canceling flights – including the early morning trip from Reykjavik to Gatwick, due to leave at 6.20am on Monday. The return leg to the Icelandic capital, due to leave Gatwick at 9.30am, was also grounded.

Wow Air has also canceled trips from Reykjavik to Chicago and Pittsburgh on Monday, with links to Brussels and Barcelona grounded on Tuesday.

Remember these factors for brochure printing

March 22, 2019 by Forimmediaterelease

Brochures and their usage in marketing for businesses is not necessarily a new subject of discussion. But, if you are new to the whole entrepreneur and marketing sphere, brochure printing can be a bit of a daunting task. In order to help you with the same, we do have some of the important factors that one definitely should keep into account when opting for this. Brochures can be used for businesses any size and shape and the versatility of this is what makes it an ideal choice for marketing and promotion.

In here, we are going to walk you through some of the effective tips that will come in handy when you are opting for printing brochures.

Put in some innovation

The very first and the primary factor that you definitely need to keep into account is to ensure that you are putting in your own thoughts and creativity. This helps ensure that your content stands out from the rest. There is not one brand that is not opting for brochures which is why it is crucial to do something that does make you stand out from the rest.

Rely on someone talented

If the brochure is going to be the face of your brand, it is important to ensure that you hire someone who would do justice to it. Don’t just hire anybody just for the sake of getting it done because the results won’t at all be good. It is important that you hire someone with experience and someone who knows what they are doing. This helps ensure that the end result is something that the audience takes well and connects with.

Take care of the stationary

Yet another important factor to ensure is to take care of the stationary as well. Whatever the prospects are, if you are delving all your time and devotion to it, it is actually very important to ensure that you invest a good amount of time and money into getting the right paper for the brochure. Don’t stick to a cheap quality material because these tend to not give off the best result altogether. Select one that screams professionalism.

Focus on the design and resolution

The last thing you want is to end up having a brochure with bad print quality and bad ink used for it. Looking after the design as well as the print resolution is very important and does help in ensuring that the final product looks professional and done from a good quality vendor and something you get for a cheap rate. Even if you spend less amount of money on getting them printed, don’t let it show on the final product.

Brochure printing and the entire process behind is actually very crucial when you look into it. Not only do you need to focus on the content and ensure its one of a kind, but you also need to ensure that the final product that you are getting is not something that turns out to be a complete waste of time and money.
