FAQ
Do you really operate all-year round?
YES!
'Jules Verne' is an ice-breaker class vessel, certified and capable of round-the-year navigation. Every year we validate our special permit to sail during winter, following thorough and rigorous inspection tests.
We are certified to sail through ice fields which are up to 20cm thick. For those rare periods during winter when ice thickness exceeds these values, we deploy icebreaker tugboats for pilotage.Among other river vessels in Moscow only Radisson Royal yachts are licensed to do the same.
Which permits do you have to advertise on your vessel?
A passenger vessel, that it normally used to carry passengers, is exempt from obtaining any special advertising permit, pursuant to provisions of sec. 20 of the Federal Advertising Act.
Vessel upgrade and refurbishment has been approved by the Ministry of Transport and its subsidiary bodies governing certification of marine and river vessels in the Russian Federation.An advertising that is installed aboard the vessel is not considered stationary.
