An Air India Dreamliner windshield cracked while landing in Australia, an airline official said Monday, the latest in a string of mishaps the aircraft has suffered in recent times.

The Delhi-Melbourne-Sydney-Delhi flight, carrying 74 passengers, developed a crack late Sunday while landing in Melbourne, Air India spokesman Praveen Bhatnagar said on Monday.

"The cockpit windscreen developed a crack while landing. It was a small incident. The windscreen has already been replaced," said Bhatnagar, adding that there was no risk to the safety of passengers.

While all passengers were transferred Sunday to another flight to Delhi, Air India flew in a new windshield from India to replace the cracked one.
