PONANT ON THE RIGHT PATH

The French-flagged PONANT is going from strength to strength, with its fleet now including 10 Clean Ship certified ships, and in 2019, it carried 60,000 passengers on 350 cruises as well as acquiring Paul Gauguin Cruises. One of the things the line is most proud of is its PONANT Foundation, whose mission is to help preserve the oceans, the polar regions and to encourage exchange and collaboration with local communities. Having operated cruises to some of the planet’s most wild and untouched places for 30 years, Ponant knows it has a great responsibility to the environment and to the indigenous peoples that they meet. PONANT Foundation implements projects that promote the traditions, history, environment, culture and art of these peoples. au.ponant.com
