An Air Canada Airbus A319-100, registration C-FYKC performing flight AC-974 from Montreal,QC (Canada) to Bridgetown (Barbados) with 107 people on board, was enroute at FL370 overhead the Atlantic Ocean about 150nm northwest of Bermuda (Bermuda) when the captain's windshield cracked. The crew actioned the according checklists, descended the aircraft to FL230 and decided to divert to Bermuda for a safe landing.
A replacement Boeing 767-300 registration C-FMWV was dispatched to Bermuda as flight AC-7050 and reached Bridgetown as flight AC-2074 with a delay of 11 hours, then performed the scheduled and cancelled return flight AC-975 (Mar 13th) to Montreal as flight AC-2175 departing Mar 14th.
The Canadian TSB reported the windshield was replaced.
