Europe's First Cougar Cruise, After Being Banned by Cruise Lines in Australia & USA

SAN RAFAEL, CA, September 04, 2010 (Press-News.org) Europe's first-ever Cougar Cruise, April 16-21, 2011, will depart from Barcelona aboard Royal Caribbean's Liberty of the Seas and visit The French Riviera, Rome, and Sardinia. The Cougar Cruise has been banned by the three largest cruise lines in Australia, and also by Carnival, the world's largest cruise line, in the USA.

"We are pleased that Royal Caribbean will be hosting our European Cougar Cruise," says Rich Gosse, Executive Producer of http://www.cougarevents.com. "While it is perfectly acceptable for middle-aged men to date women their daughter's age, women don't have the same privilege. After the tremendous success of the world's first International Cougar Cruise, December 2009, aboard Carnival, we were shocked that they refused to allow another. If there had been problems on the first Cougar Cruise we would understand being banned. But hundreds of our cougars and cubs onboard were well-behaved, and there were absolutely no problems. We expect the same will be true with the European Cougar Cruise."

The Cruise will be one of two grand prizes that will be awarded to the winner of the title of Miss Cougar International at the International Cougar Convention, Saturday, 11 September 2010, at Abacus Nightclub, 24 Cornhill, London, UK. Along with winning a free berth on that cruise, she will also win a free week at Hedonism II Resort at Negril Beach, Jamaica, during International Cougar Week, March 27 - April 2, 2011. Airfare is not included.

He is the author of eight books on this topic, including You CAN Hurry Love, Singles Guide to America, and A Good Man Is EASY to Find ("This is a great book!" Oprah Winfrey). His entertaining advice has been featured by ABC, BBC, CBS, CNN, CNBC, Fox New, MSNBC, Oprah, Donahue, Cosmopolitan, Newsweek, Entrepreneur, Business Week, Playboy, Playgirl, The Wall Street Journal, London Times, The Australian, The New Zealand Herald, etc.
