Right now, cruise lovers can compete for not one but two free cruises in specialty contests. You can get more details at http://www.thecruise-shopper.com/News_Mainpage.html.
Princess Cruises is playing off its Love Boat image by offering a contest for the most romantic person. If you think you're the most romantic person (or you want to nominate someone who is), you can send in a video entry of three minutes or less making your case. Princess explains how (visit its website) at http://www.greatestromantic.princess.com/ for specifics. The winner walks away with a free cruise. But you have to hurry. Deadline is March 20, 2008. The best five entries will be determined by April 1 and for two weeks, the general public can pick the best entry.
Meanwhile, Royal Caribbean is busy building what it's calling the two largest cruise ships in the world. Code-named Genesis I and Genesis II, RC is holding a contest to invite members of the public to name those ships. This is a bit of a break with tradition in the cruise world (and tradition is a big thing in the maritime industry). Typically, heads of state or cruise lines or captains of industry are asked to name ships. Letting everyday people have the honor is a new thing, but one RC intends to pay off handsomely. If your entry wins, you'll get a seven-day first-class cruise on the ship you named, plus you'll be invited to the naming ceremony.
Details on that are at http://www.namethatship.com/. Contest deadline is February 29, so the pressure is on.
