New travel tours embrace 'Cougar' trend

— -- Mancations came and went. The girlfriend getaway thing jumped the shark a while ago. Now, the latest travel promotion is targeting "cougars" — older women looking to snare younger men.

Among the cougar-nip: A singles travel agency is sponsoring a three-night cougar cruise on a Carnival ship in December (888-286-8687; singlestravelcompany.com). San Francisco-based Personality Hotels has rolled out a "Cougars With Personality" package, which nabs a night at the Hotel Diva, two animal-print thongs and a professional bra-fitting at the local Nordstrom. Rates start at $199 — male "cub" not included. (800-553-1900; personalityhotels.com)
