I checked that the 1PC hold baggage was there as indication that I hadn't move to NOBAG fare, as I thought bag and SDC travelled together.
At LHR-EDI check-in I asked to move to an earlier flight, and they said SDC was not on ticket. I took original BP to lounge (where conversation was easier) and asked again with same result. Should SDC have stayed there, and could / should I have asked them to find it on original booking and honour it? Or do I need to double check with TA that they have kept it in place?
SDC or FCOD is not available for open jaw tickets so when you changed to an open jaw FCOD probably was no longer available for your new routing.
