Why is it hard to get the agent to tag one bag to one passenger and one to another if there are two bags? Some airlines only give you on free checked bag anyway.

It is easier to tag both bags under one passenger's name during the check-in process even when there are two pax on the PNR if they qualify for two or more bags.

Why is that easier? Just because it's 15 seconds less work for the check in agent?

Besides issues already surfaced, you might have bought your ticket with a credit card that carries luggage insurance. It needs to be tagged with your name for the insurance to apply.

Good point.

Just sharing information as a reason why checkin agent do certain things.
15 seconds time number of pax adds up.

No need to overreact. ;)

I agree with everyone else... it doesn't seem like you overreacted to me. It was a reasonable request and it doesn't seem like you made a scene or anything, you just wanted to make sure the change happened and then went on your way.
