Princess Cruises Wants to Know, "Are You the Greatest Romantic?"

The leader of love at sea, Princess Cruises is launching a nationwide search asking, "Are You the Greatest Romantic?" All "romantics at heart" can nominate themselves or someone they believe deserves this highest honor of amorous aptitude. "The Greatest Romantic" will be chosen from a field of entries narrowed down to five finalists determined by the line's Department of Romance experts. After a public vote, he or she will become an "ambassador of love" for the department for one full year, in addition to receiving a romantic cruise for two.

The contest launches on Valentine's Day and Princess invites all romantics to submit a video telling why they deserve this honor. Videos can be entered until March 20, and then from April 1-14 the five finalists will be posted and the general public will have the chance to vote for their favorite "Greatest Romantic." The winner will be announced on April 15 and receive a romantic, 7-day cruise for two to Mexico or the Caribbean, including airfare. While onboard they will receive a special couple's package from Lotus Spa. "The Greatest Romantic" will also enjoy a year-long title of Princess' "ambassador of love" as a member of its Department of Romance.

"From a personal love story to an original poem or creative stunt, we're seeking compelling video entries expressing romance from many perspectives," said Jan Swartz, senior vice president for Princess Cruises. "Be it in small or dramatic ways, we're looking for someone who can channel their inner romantic and espouse the meaning of romance for others, plus share how they make romance a part of their daily lives."

Three-minute video entries should compellingly convey why the person is the ultimate romantic. For a complete list of rules and video requirements, as well as sample video entries for romantic inspiration, visit greatestromantic.princess.com.
