Altitude Dashboard "Promotion Code"

Hi

Just logged into my dashboard and seen a "Promotion Code" has been added to the toolbar.....is this new or part of SE? I am first time SE so dont know if this is associated with that status. It says "you are currently not eligible for a promotion code".

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Cheers

JB

If you chose "aircanada.com Travel Options", your codes will be online this year, instead of mailed out to you.

That's where they appear.

Nothing else changes.

Just wanted to add the the 'Promotion Code' tab is not an SE thing. It is a new feature of the Altitude site for everybody.

Right now it seems to be used for the 'travel option' codes. We don't know yet if AC will use it for some other reason.

Thanks Cow, for the clarification.

I was confused when some people said lounge passes would appear there. I selected lounge passes and nothing showed up in my Promo Code tab.

Sorry - when I checked the link, the matching posts were highlighted. May have just been cookies on my computer.
However, it was quickly found with a search so, sorry it was not helpful, but it's been discussed.

Since I never received my "aircanada.com Travel Options" this year, I am quite happy with this new feature...

That assumes that this will work properly, unlike any of AC's other IT systems

Hello all,

I am a new 25K person. I am having trouble figuring out how to apply my Altitude promo code for Air Canada Bistro to a booking. When I click on "Use an Air Canada Gift Card or eCoupon" at the check-out, I'm then asked to put in a 15-digit eCoupon number as well as a 4-digit PIN. The Altitude promo code for the AC Bistro is 8 digits, not 15 digits, thus I can't enter it. Any tips? Sorry if this has been covered -- I did search but didn't find anything.

you put in the promo code at beginning of your search on AC web site, just like those % off discount codes.

I am working with 4 latitude flight passes. The codes I have are not eligible for use with flight passes. They are useless to me.

Presumably they are also useless for people who don't travel in Y?

Can they be given away to people with no status?

A ha! Thanks. Is there any way to apply the coupon afterwards? I guess I'll give them a call and check it out. It's only a $10 savings or so, and the flight is not until July so no biggie. :-)
