There is nothing specifically prohibiting the company from offering them other than the fact that they have never done so in the past and they do not offer hotels to DEN based crews in training and with coming up with a new practice of offering new hires hotels they would also have to address the other issues.
The only I’ve read is that at the ”companies discretion” they can raise new hire pay to 98.5% of second year pay, so low 100s. So they will probably do that or pay for hotels whichever is cheaper.
