Go on holiday to find a prince
Don’t wait for Prince Harry to find you in Australia – jump on a plane and go find your own right royal romance with a
little help (and a small price) from Cheapflights.com.au.
Ever since Princess Mary, the former real estate agent from Tasmania, met Prince Frederick at a Sydney pub during the
Sydney Olympics, young Australian women have held out hope that, like a good Disney movie, one day their prince may
come.
But with Prince Harry’s only scheduled public appearance, at the Australian War Memorial in Canberra flying by earlier
this week without a whisper of romance, (unless you count his polite chastising of a teenage girl trying to take a
selfie) Australian royalty wannabes might need to look further afield.
The travel experts at flight comparison website Cheapflights.com.au have scoured the globe for five of the world’s most eligible royals – and found the cheapest airfares for Aussie women
to go find their prince.
Cheapflights.com.au spokesman, Ben Rosier said: “These days you don’t have to be a crowned prince (or princess) to travel the globe – and
in the light of Harry’s visit to Oz, we thought it might be fun to look at eligible royal bachelors who are worth
crossing continents for.
“With Cheapflights you can be sure that you won’t have to stump up a king’s ransom for your flights – and if you don’t
find your Prince Charming, you’ll at least have fun exploring other cultures and maybe be able to save enough to stump
up for some seven-star luxury while you’re away.”
Denmark - Prince Philippos of Greece and Denmark
