AA will let you jumpseat int'l, but YOUR airline has to be on their international reciprocal JS list. Most regionals are not.

Not sure what you're talking about. You CAN JS BACK TO THE U.S., JUST NOT IN THE COCKPIT JS. It's simple, and just slightly different than in the U.S.. You walk up to the ticket counter, or if applicable, the "staff travel" counter, and request a JS pass to ride on whatever flight. You pay whatever departure taxes apply, and head to the gate. I've never had a problem requesting a JS from a foreign gate agent.
You must be walking up to a LH, AF, BA, etc flight and asking for a jumpseat, in that case, yes, they will not know what you are talking about.

Simple, you ask for JS form. As long as it's not on AA, and there's a seat in back, you should get on. And the standard statement applies, it's always the CA's discretion.

It's always a good idea to have that as a backup.
