Wrong Flag for part of my Fleet

Dear MarineTraffic team,

Please let me share with you an error on greatest part of the Ponant cruise ships flags.

All 9 current navigating ships are registered in France, more precisely the French pacific territory of Wallis and Futuna.

This territory has no official Flag, except the French flag (please check Wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Wallis_and_Futuna)

All below MMSI numbers refer to French territories who are all very officially, and diplomatically represented by the French flag, the blue, white, and red strips. The flag of our sail ship Le Ponant is the right one on MarineTraffic. By the way, as “Métropole” means main land, our sail ship is registered with an MMSI number starting with 227, but all other ships, including the ones with an MMSI starting by 578 (“Wallis et Futuna”), i.e. the 8 others of our fleet, must be represented by the French Flag.

• 226 : Métropole
• 227 : Métropole
• 228 : Métropole
• 329 : Guadeloupe
• 347 : Martinique
• 361 : Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon
• 501 : Terre Adélie
• 540 : Nouvelle-Calédonie
• 546 : Polynésie française
• 578 : Wallis-et-Futuna
• 607 : Îles Saint-Paul et Amsterdam
• 618 : Archipel Crozet et TAAF
• 635 : Îles Kerguelen et navires inscrits au RIF (Registre international français)
• 660 : Réunion ; Mayotte
• 745 : Guyane

 

Thank you for your answer,

Best regards,

p.p. J.-E. Sauvée, Olivier Narcy, VP - Global Customer Relations, PONANT

  Dear Jean-Emmanuel,

  Thank you for reaching out to us about this.

  I am sorry to learn that the correct does not appear on your vessel's records.
  In order for us to look into this properly, we will need to be able to view the vessels.
  Could you please provide me with a list of their MMSI or IMO numbers?

  Thank you in advance for your response.
  I look forward to hearing from you.

  Kind regards,

  I have looked into the vessel records and, from what I can see, the French flag appears.
  Here is an example:

  Definitely weird.

  Dear Iliana,

  I hope this post finds you well.

  One of my friends using MarineTraffic on Samsung via Play Store underlined that apparently, the fix is not done on this technical environment.

  Can you please do the necessary ?

  Best regards.

  Dear Jean-Emmanuel,

  Thank you for your response.

  As mentioned previously, the changes have been made, but they will be visible when a new update is released.

  We have released the update on the iOS app, but a new version of our Android App has not yet been released.
  Once it is, your friend will also be able to see the correct flag on our app.

  Thank you in advance for your patience in the meantime.

  I remain at your disposal.

  Kind regards,
