Use of US Air Flag Carriers

Dear colleagues
The guidelines for government paid international travel are specific in
determining when and where to use US and foriegn air carriers. But this
interesting twist just came to light: What about the US carriers who are
in partnership with a foreign air service (ie. US Airways and British
Airways)? We have an instance of an individual who wants to use British
Airways for an international trip, citing the partnership with the US
carrier as a way of "staying within the Fly America Act". Is this going
out on a limb or what? Comments and suggestions are always appreciated.
