From the GSA website:

"Commercial airfares can be highly volatile, so an exception to the mandatory use requirement allows government travelers to take advantage of any low commercial fares offered by non-contract carriers, if the fares are also offered to the general public."

How can a government fare traveler "choose" the airline/frequent flyer program?
