I've had REALLY great ticket counter agents at every AS city I've flown out of with one exception--JNU...I've found them to be VERY strict when it comes to following policy to the letter....last time I got a lecture about not being there early enough and that I shouldn't assume the rules are different "just because they are a small city".
If you are staying less than 12 hours, you can check all the way through.
