Question #372 about Beverage Packages

[Rachel302]

Sorry if already asked. I did a search and didn't find it, though the search feature has failed me more than once! ;)

When I order the beverage package online, it says payment due, but WHEN is payment due? It says something like please pay soon to guarantee your reservation. If I don't pay now, will I be subject to price increase (as the sale ends tomorrow) or possible cancellation? I want to get in before the sale ends but also don't have $800 readily available after paying the cruise deposit itself just recently.

Anyone with experience?

You pay with your credit card right then and your credit card account is charged immediately. You do get a 10% discount but you have to pay in advance in order to take advantage of the discount.

Good to know, thanks! I usually use my visa check card for online purchases to avoid putting too much on credit. Might not be worth the sale once I have to pay interest on the credit card! Hadn't figured this extra cost into my vacation fund this early on in the process. Darn enticing sale!
