Seeking help from the anet group.
I am looking at a flight schedule for service between Bangkok and Nagoya back in 1989.
The service is shown as both a Japan Air Lines and Thai Airways International flight:
Bangkok-Nagoya
1:20am-8:30am JL 644 AB3 MonThunOnly
1:20am-8:30am TG 644 AB3 MonThuOnly
Nagoya-Bangkok
10:45am-3:20pm TG 645 AB3 MonThuOnly
10:45am-3:20pm JL 645 AB3 MonThuOnly
I don't believe Japan Air Lines operated the A300 at this point in time and the aircraft seems to originate and return to Bangkok on the same day.
Therefore, I was thinking this was probably a Thai flight? Can anyone confirm?
Thank you in advance.

The flight times (with 2 hour ground in Nagoya) indicate origin in Bangkok and therefore I would imagine it is TG operated.

From JAL's Jul/Aug 1990 timetable:
https://airline-memorabilia.blogspot.co ... -1990.html
If some of the images doesn't work, the link to the PDF version:

Go to p.11 and p.13.
It's jointly operated, aka it's technically a JL flight, but is operated by TG crew and aircraft.
You're correct about A300 - JAL didn't get them until 2004 (as part of merger with JAS), and even then, they only operated them on domestic routes. JAL usually operate DC10 or B747 to BKK back in those days.
