i have a 2015 macbook air that has slight liquid damage. It boots up and runs fine except the backlight on the display is gone. In the past I had a 2012 Air that was out of warranty that had a similar issue and the apple store offered a "depot repair" fee of 310.00 the would fix any issues. Does anyone know if that applies to one with liquid damage as well?
Got a tip for us?

No, that Depot flat fee is for "Non-Physical Damage". Let's say your Logic Board goes bad, or Backlight stops working on its own. Physical Damage Depot for a 13" and smaller machine is $755. Sorry
Deport Flat Rate repair has 4 tiers.
If Apple determine that it is accidental damage, you might be quoted a higher tier.
Of cause, you never know.
