That is still advantageous to us. The current exchange on the open market is about 24%.thank you for the info.

You're not Capt. Obvious at all. Normally this is not something I would even think of doing prior to cruising, but NCL has not yet adjusted their spread between Cdn. and US currency to reflect the huge drop in the Cdn. dollar over the past few months, so it is extremely advantageous for me to purchase the OBC's now.

As one northern cruiser to another, can these prepaid OBC's be used in the casino and converted to cash in hand there? I noiced the exchange difference as well and as of today it is in our favour by about 17 cents per dollar? I was thinking about using them for my personal currency converter?
