Reimbursement of airline miles on a federal grant

Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone has ever reimbursed a flight on a grant that was paid for using airline miles (i.e. Delta Sky Miles)? The question has been posed regarding if we can reimburse someone the cost of what the flight would have cost had the traveler paid directly. My understanding per the UG is that reimbursement must reflect "actual costs," and since the receipt for the actual flight has no dollar amount that such reimbursement would be unallowable. Thoughts?
