(By the side of this flag an incorrect
portuguese national flag was flown every sunday from about 1995
upto late 2005.)

Orbitur is a formerly state-owned camping park network company. It operates thirty something caping sites in Portugal, and its flag can be seen hoisted at their entrances, usually along with the national flag, the EU flag, the appropriate municipal flag and, sometimes, the approriate communal flag.
The Orbitur company flag is light blue with the logo centered on it (about 1/3rd of the width and 2/3rds of the height), surrounded by a narrow blue stripe. The logo shows a red triangle pointing upwards notched in a (dark) blue area with a triangular gap pointing downwards and almost meeting the red traingle’s top. All this in a white very stylized shield (a rectangle with its bottom corner slightly rounded) on whose “chief” the lettering "ORBITUR" is set in heavy sans-serif blue capitals. The red triangle seems to symbolize a camping tent. The reverse of the hoisted flag, as usual for such flag, is unreadable ("ЯUTIƐЯO").António Martins, 18 Dec 2005
Casino Estoril (a casino located, obviously enough, in the town of
Estoril, just outside Lisbon in the Cascais
municipality. The flag is with the logo of the corporation in it;
shown in a photo used in advertisement to the Corporate Golf
Challenge published i.a. in Golfe Executivo (supplement
of Público newspaper), which was sponsored by the casino.
