Fly America Act Lori Hulak 14 Jan 2009 17:28 EST

Good afternoon fellow RA's -

Is there a federal regulation called the Fly America Act that requires travel charged to federal grants be done on an american carrier?

I have received this email from a faculty member at my institution:

"Our current program manager's assistant said that she'd never heard of such a requirement, and checked with someone else there who hadn't either.  She gave us the name of a third person who should be the definitive word on the subject.  This person is currently travelling on the West Coast so I am emailing her now."

I would appreciate any and all feedback as soon as possible :)
