Each airline is different. For United you only check in at the ticket counter if it's international. It also says to check in at the departure gate. However, American allows check-in at both gate and ticket counter. If you queue jump out of ignorance you're still a queue jumper. Read the ALPA guidance before jumpseating on any airline and do it right.
