If you whitelist this domain, then you should see the codes. It worked for me.

However, I'm now running into an issue where I cannot actually complete a search on the Book page when I enter the code -- the Find Flights button just doesn't do anything (except generate a JS error). It's super frustrating that AS doesn't test their site to make sure it works in these common scenarios of users with ad blockers. I did try emailing CS about it and got back an AI-generated response basically saying they'd forward it on.
I use Firefox on Windows, primarily, and keep things well locked down. optimizely.com is indeed which is on my JS-blocker's whitelist for the AS website. I'm also using an ad blocker, of course.

I don't know what code you're trying to use, so I tried "cheap" at random on the Book a Flight page. Got "This discount code didn't work." So... maybe this has nothing to do with what you're trying to do, in which case, never mind.
