Putting a hold on the money due later is a standard practice already, happening with some of the hotel bookings as an example.

This is how I understood it to work. When you buy your plane tickets now, that money goes into an escrow account and stays there until you check-in for your flight and is not released until check-in happens. This is why airlines like you to do early check-in.
