Strange Private IP Address on Airport WiFi?

Hey all!

Take this down if I'm posting in the wrong place, but I've currently got my phone connected to a public WiFi hotspot at an airport and my assigned IP address is listed as 100.70.24.138. As a network engineering student I was super confused by this seeing as it lies outside of the assigned private address blocks. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? I checked my PC and the address is similar. Why are the clients on this network getting assigned unusual addresses like this?
