Who operates Thai Airways flight TG 9072?
In our data, Thai Airways is the airline selling TG9072. Who actually operates the flight is shown on your ticket or booking confirmation.
Was TG 9072 part of a connecting flight? How is compensation calculated?
Your booking shows this, not the flight number. If TG9072 was part of a connecting journey on one booking, distance is counted from the first departure airport to the final destination, and the delay is counted on arrival at the final destination. The distance band (short-, medium- or long-haul) follows that distance and may then differ from this leg (£350 (UK261), depending on the airline).
