I find it hard to believe that the slight reduction in air pressure in a commercial aircraft cabin could result in screen cracking. What I would believe is that they were wearing the phone in a holster on their belt, sat in the seat and bumped it against the armrest, causing it to crack. I've had an LG screen crack by just bumping against something while wearing the phone on my belt. The flip phones with the screen on the outer cover are vulnerable.
That said, a Treo (or any phone) should be OK if you are aware of what the potential dangers are for bumping against things. I'd be surprised to hear about this happening to phones that did not have an external screen.
