Good Afternoon,

I have a new twist on the Fly America Act.  I have a ticket printed on
Lufthansa ticket stock but under the flight No. it lists the Lufthansa
flight No. (LH 403) and just beneath that it reads "Also CO 5003".

This individual quotes the NSF RTC Article 13.c.2. "Any air
transportation to, from, between, or within a country other than the
U.S. of persons or property, the expense of which will be assisted by
NSF funding, must be performed by or under a code-sharing arrangement
with a U.S.-flag air carrier if service provided by such a carrier is
available (see Comptroller General Decision B-240956, dated September
25, 1991).  Tickets (or documentation for electronic tickets) must
identify the U.S. flag air carrier's designator code and flight number."

Historically, we required the ticket to be printed on the U.S. Flag
Carrier ticket stock.  This one is on Lufthansa ticket stock but,
technically, it does "identify the U.S. flag air carrier's designator
code and flight number."

I look forward to hearing how my esteemed colleagues would handle this one!

Ruth Tallman
