The max VDB to offer probably depends on the amount it would cost to IDB someone, an amount that will vary flight to flight. I swear I've heard a $2,000 VDB with AA offered on a DFW-BOG, mostly as it would have also involved spending the night at a hotel at/near DFW. I'm guessing it would also have involved a significant time delay. It wasn't on a flight I was on though, only heard it as I walked by the gate for it, so take it with a grain of salt.
