Following a stint in the Mediterranean, Chiporukha was charged with shipping the yacht to the Indian Ocean, where the festivities would continue with his oversight. Once it was completed, Chiporukha’s client requested that he accompany him to pick the yacht up at the Cannes Film Festival, and then spend the duration of the summer planning excursions for the revolving door of people who would be staying onboard. “I ended up needing to establish a relationship with the Missoni house because all of the boat was done in Missoni - the fabrics on the backboards of the bed, the towels, the bathrobes, things of that nature.” “ helped a client build a superyacht,” Chiporukha says. If following the introductory period both sides do decide to move forward, clients pay an annual retainer for “services rendered” in addition to the hard costs associated with any given itinerary. As a general rule of thumb, Roman & Erica vet and court prospective clients for a three-month period before moving forward in any capacity (the one exception to that rule being when they have been referred by existing clients - their preferred method of acquisition). If it’s not clear already, this is not your average travel company. “ rather than calling a travel agent, a car company and a massage therapist, they can call one person who knows all of their preferences, their ins and outs, and facilitate anything pertaining to their lifestyle and leisure,” Chiporukha says.

If you dive 70 meters with a 50-meter watch, it’s going to buckle under the pressure and break. It’s the only submarine that is designated unlimited depth,” says Roman Chiporukha, co-founder of Roman & Erica.
For a price tag of $750,000, New York-based travel concierge Roman & Erica - in collaboration with EYOS Expeditions - is offering patrons the opportunity to plumb the depths of the western Pacific Ocean as the sole passenger of a 14,000-meter tested (and classed) submersible, the human occupied space of which is a 90-millimeter titanium sphere, previously reserved only for research purposes.
To this point, descents have been limited almost exclusively to scientists, researchers and Hollywood film director James Cameron.īut that’s about to change. It is so deep that, according to Insider, if you were to drop every altitudinous inch of Mount Everest down into it, the peak would still be more than a kilometer below the surface.
At a depth of more than 36,000 feet, the Mariana Trench is the deepest oceanic trench on the planet.
