The PNW district folks did this for teams here. They bought an assortment of tickets -- about 200, I believe -- on Alaska Airlines many months in advance and made those tickets available to teams that qualified. The airfare wasn't exactly cheap, but it did assure availability.
The overall cost was north of $100,000; the airlines are willing to bend the rules when sufficiently motivated.
