My choices are 1,2,3,4 J or 2,3,4 A

I have been reading about this service thing where they first serve even no flights from the front and odd no flights from the rear of the cabin.

Is it the first number of the flight no, or the last number that they make this determination.
I have read here it is def on AA domestic but does it also apply to AA international?

Thanks for your time,
I personally would go with 2A...that is my personal preference for this plane. I don't like row 1 as it is too close to the galleys. Row 3 feels to busy for me, and row 4 is the last row which I don't particularly care for.

AA 943 would be an ODD flight (i.e. Service starts from back). It is the last number of the flight that makes the determination (of course in this case it does not matter, 9 vs. 3). AA generally adheres to FEBO (front-even-back-odd), but you cannot always be sure. If you are concerned about getting the food of your choice, you may want to select row 3 instead of 2.
