I have not had good luck with that feature.
Here's a FreeBSD traceroute, using the same host I referenced before:
% traceroute -a efes.iucc.ac.il
traceroute to efes.iucc.ac.il (128.139.202.17), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets
1 [AS1280] exit.blue.sql1.isc.org (149.20.48.1) 4.658 ms 2.718 ms 1.778 ms

Now, I happen to administer hop #2, and know the packets are leaving
on a link to Global Crossing (glbx.net). How AS 1221, which is
Telstra, ends up in there is beyond me.
From a Juniper box with a full table:
bicknell at re0.r7.pao1> traceroute as-number-lookup efes.iucc.ac.il
traceroute to efes.iucc.ac.il (128.139.202.17), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
1 int-2-0-0.r1.pao1.isc.org (149.20.65.16) 4.448 ms 3.973 ms 3.222 ms
2 ge-9-15-1G.ar1.PAO2.gblx.net (64.215.195.21) 50.724 ms 67.135 ms 50.761 ms

At least it's not wrong, but there is no ASN listed because the /30
on the link between 2 and 3 is internal, so it views hop 3 as being
internal to my ASN, when it is not.
But more importantly, not all traceroutes have this feature, and as I
said it's about being polite.
