Well, yesterday was my birthday and no birthday perk was received from Air Canada.

I guess the virtual confetti will have to suffice. Because - COVID?

Same here. Confetti in the app and on the web page (while I was drinking my free birthday coffee from Starbucks) but no offer of any kind from Air Canada.

I asked about it on AE Twitter, was told it was random and no luck for me this year.

"Random"?

Well, I guess that is a more succinct version of consistently inconsistent.

Happy belated birthday!

As a special 25% gift, Covid and AC can make any day is your birthday! Choose 25% less chance of snack basket, 25% less deep cleaning, or a 25% chance of your next upgrade clearing.

Any recent experiences on this perk? Have some cash flights to book and birthday is two weeks away…so thinking of rolling the dice and see if I randomly receive a birthday promo code….

Like others, I just got confetti in March.

AC has claimed that this is a targeted offer, but who knows what what the selection criteria is.

So, if you get it, do the happy dance. If not, don't be too disappointed.

I also received this on my birthday in April. I guess randomness favours me this year?

I got the same offer on my birthday. Selected the 25% OFF and used it to book a flight - and saved about $400 - excellent birthday gift!

How long did it take for you to receive the 25% discount code from the time you selected it?
I'm aware it says something on the lines of "within 72 hours".
