30 years ago that was an option in Almaty (was extremely convenient for me, as we lived literally 2 block from there). You could check in, drop baggage, go through security and then ride on a bus directly to the plane. Same in Moscow, not sure about other cities (did not fly to other locations back then). However, this was only partial solution, as it worked for departures only, not arrivals. https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Алматинский_аэровокзал https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Алматинский_аэровокзал
