4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you all for your inputs. Though I have noticed "報奨旅行" has most hits,"褒賞旅行"and"インセンティブ・ツアー"are also used by travel agencies for their ads and on corporate websites where they list employee benefits. "

In your examples, each one is slightly different from another. Let me explain.

large convention, small business meetings, family reunion or an "incentive" group
IN THIS CASE IT IS MORE LIKE 激励GEKIREI(GIVE ENCOURAGEMENT)

conference or "incentive" needs
動機 DOUKI(GIVE A MOTIVATION)

any conference and "incentive" travel group
報奨 PROMOTIONAL INCENTIVE(REWARD OR MORE PRECISELY BAITS)
