"Traceroute packets" is extremely vague. As a general rule, if you
want to discover a complete path between endpoints that are expected
to communicate using 80/tcp, trace the route using 80/tcp.

(Not that it's ever expected to see protocol-specific drops in a core
or across a transit or peering edge.)
