It did not change, 12 years down to 15% is used since a long time.
In the regulated ´cost plus accounting´ era, when airlines had to produce costs, depreciation was, of course, faster.
P.S.
BA used to depreciate over twenty years down to 10 % using the straight line method as well. Delta up to 25, in some cases, 30 years down to 10%
