So does the state department and other agencies.

Not sure why it couldn’t be done by the airlines.

For that matter, I believe United actually DOES have some such policy for their Guam based personnel.
The government does not try to make a profit. Pay crews in a base more money and the airline quickly will shift crews to other bases. They will weigh the increased credit if any against the increased hourly costs.
