The stopover sounds cool too. I don't know anything about stopover rules, but I would love to stop somewhere along the way.
No, alliances mean you can use your US miles to book on *A partners --- you cannot transfer miles between partners.
I would look at the US Airways forum for tips on how to book with US miles ... you'll need enough for a round-trip though.
