Can offline jumpseaters get on intl flights?
I read the guides for offline jumpseaters that Fedex and UPS have on their JS website and I think it said that jumpseaters were not allowed on intl flights. But I distinctly remember some guys saying in another thread (which I can't find now) that they've jumpseated on cargo carriers internationally and supposedly it's the best kept secret. So exactly which cargo carriers permit offline jumpseaters? Specifically, I have to get to KIX (from the east coast.) If there are any could someone kindly give me the number/website where I can look up flights/list?

Atlas, Polar, Kalitta, the ACMI's will take you. UPS and FedEx can't
UAL goes to KIX out of SFO, at least they did.
