An Air Canada Airbus A320-200, registration C-FZUB performing flight AC-2072 from Toronto,ON (Canada) to Punta Cana (Dominican Republic) with 138 people on board, was enroute when smoke emanated from the video display unit at seat 31D (and was not part of just the display). The crew consulted the quick reference handbook, removed power from the inflight entertainment system which stopped the smoke. The flight was continued to Punta Cana for a safe landing.

The Canadian TSB reported that the Smart Video Display Unit of seat 31D as well as the audio jack were replaced.
