Was the plane parked at a gate, just not using the jetway? This is fairly common with the LCCs as it is quicker and avoids damage to the 'craft from the jetway.
An A380 would be parked on a remote stand, not outside the terminal building, to ensure you are not sucked into the engines of a passing plane (or run over by an airside vehicle) they need to use the shuttle busses to move you around.
