When I went with my team to CMP (once in Atlanta, once to STL) both times we used the subway/metro and walked.
Not sure on exact numbers but the STL airport was very crowded with many many teams. I imagine a majority of teams >500 miles (and reasonably close to a regional airport) fly to championships.
On our team, and I assume for lots of teams especially far from champs (PNW etc) only allow the most dedicated team members to go. It is certainly cost prohibitive to move lots of people across the country any way you try.
