I talked to Costco Travel yesterday and the agent told me that I had to go ahead and book ($800 deposit) the cruise and then go to Princess site and select the options that I wanted.
I would like to know the bottom line before I book.
Has anybody had any experience during this?

And another question, we have always used the insurance provided by the cruise lines. Are there other options for cruise insurance that may be more economical?
Thanks for any input.
Another option is to book through Princess directly then transfer the reservation to Costco. Very easy to do, after booking just call Costco Travel and they do all the work for you. You still get the Costco Cash Card and I pay with my Costco credit card to get that bonus money also. Saved me about $800 on my Alaska cruise!
