Default 3:45 AM counter opening time

According to Alaska Air’s website their Medford ticket counter opens at 3:45 AM. I’ll assume “…after arriving at the airport before 0400 hrs…” means the OP, actually, was standing at the ticket counter at that time---rather than just pulling into the parking lot. If it was the former then Alaska Air either needs to re-schedule this flight to a later departure or open the ticket counter at 2:45 AM. I suppose the airline employees/sympathizers on here will say he should have camped-out at that ticket counter before they opened so he would be first in line. That may be a good idea---assuming the airport police don’t shoo you away. Also, are the doors to the terminal locked before a certain hour?
