This certainly is the trend among web developers. Make everyone suffer on a design that is only (remotely) useful on a 4" smart-phone.
Because so many teens are buying airline tickets these days, they need to participate in the race to the bottom in poor web design, otherwise this commercially important group is lost.
Preferably, make the booking into a game or a platform where the teen can do some self promotion when booking all those expensive tickets and the future of the airline is safe.
