Sure, you'll get a 15-20% discount off of the purchase price but you're still talking 12K. I just priced the NRT route (Sat->Fri) on a corporate discount and it is 12.9K. Unless you're referring to route-specific contracts, but that is a different beast with different costs and implications and rarer.

Delta definitely sells TPAC seats for 15K. Just like they sell TATL seats for 7-10K. I've bought plenty of them (more TALT than TPAC).
