Most of the airline industry is strapped for cash as it is and struggling just to stay alive. You don't seriously think they have the money or time and energy to to put in state of the art booking systems do you? Of course not, they are using legacy out of date systems that are probably 10-15 years old as you stated. This should not surprise anyone. 😀
Make that age 30-40 years. SABRE was considered old when I was doing a project for them 23 years ago.
