I went to the originating airport early enough to catch another IAH flight that would give me about 75 minutes more connect time. However, I went in mortal fear that I would be hit with the $25 SDC fee--so I went to the gate instead of the counter.
This scenario would not be exempted by the new policy. It would only exempt the fee once you're at the intermediate station.
Glad that you found a sympathetic agent.
