Through concurrence, we characterize the entanglement of optical coherent-state qubits subject to an amplitude damping channel. We investigate the distillation capabilities of known error correcting codes and obtain upper bounds on the entanglement depending on the non-orthogonality of the input states and the channel damping parameter, thus quantitatively analysing these photon-loss codes which are naturally reminiscent of the standard qubit codes against Pauli errors
