Is there a downside though as long one flies AS with any frequency?
For example, if I pay $70 for a ticket ($30 discount off a $100 ticket) under one of the discount codes and I need to cancel/change after the promo ends, wouldn't I still have a $70 credit to use towards a new ticket?

Does anyone know if you'd still accrue miles? I did a dummy booking (It works already despite saying it shouldn't) and it was showing booking into X class which looks to credit 100% but they don't mention one way or another.
Oh and FWIW, use TAKEMEAWAY I dunno who it all represents but as a ramp guy this is the one they gave us.
It's interesting and it's a good promo, but I've got so much money locked into other airlines already, and losing the discount if you make any changes is a bit of a kiss of death for me. Being in Canada, I don't even think Trudeau knows when this bloody quarantine regulation will end and until then, there's really nowhere to go. So I could plan something for June, JFC by June I'd better be able to travel again, but who knows right? I'm in a really low risk group for any vaccination so if that becomes a requirement for travel or whatever then I'm stuck. So while I appreciate the effort of the airline, I'll probably just hold off unless I can find a really cheap fare, especially in F that I'm ok just losing if I have to.

Yes it accrues miles just like any other ticket. And the discount applies to all published fares -Saver, Main, and First

SCC is basically excluded from any discounts for this reason. Certain days of the week are very difficult for upgrades to/from ANC (shift change)
