The available Session in the controller is the HttpSessionStateBase. You can access it using either Session[param] or base.Session[param] if your controller inherits from Controller. But this may be useless with Ajax if you have it set cookieless.

It's difficult to figure out why your session is not getting populated for Ajax calls. I can only tell you that your session should get populated for Ajax calls.
