adding internet ?

I recently booked a cruise through Costco Travel. It's with NCL for next year. If I decide to add an internet package, and pay for it now, is that fee refundable if I later cancel the cruise?
TIA

Any advantage in paying now rather than once on board? Even if it's refundable, there might still be a hassle factor getting your money back.

You should check with your travel agent, in this case, Costco...to verify how the booking is set up. With most cruise line bookings, if you cancel before the final payment date, you get everything back. However, you should verify this with them. case.

Yes, it's cheaper if you pay before sailing.

I'll call them. I have a new credit card I need to put some spend on so that's why I asked.

The Costco rep. assured me that all payments, for anything, are fully refundable.

There are some combination packages that could make sense; code FASUP includes streaming internet, an extra $50 excursion credit (for the 2nd occupant of the cabin), 2 extra specialty dinners and premium beverage package. For me it worked out well, even though the beverage part really doesn't matter to me (other than that it includes starbucks).
