A Delta Airlines Boeing 757-200, registration N699DL performing flight DL-2312 from Salt Lake City,UT to Anchorage,AK (USA), was climbing out of Salt Lake City when the crew reported problems with an engine (PW2037). While climbing through FL250 the aircraft was cleared to climb to FL340 on pilot's discretion, the crew responded they would descend back to FL250 for a second. The aircraft continued on FL250 towards Anchorage for about 10 minutes then the crew decided to return to Salt Lake City advising the left hand engine was reduced in power and requesting emergency services on stand by as a precaution. The aircraft landed safely on Salt Lake City's runway 16R about 40 minutes after aborting the climb and descending back to FL250.

A passenger reported an "odd engine sound" during the climb out of Salt Lake City, about 30 minutes later the captain announced there were engine problems and they were returning to Salt Lake City. A replacement Boeing 757-200 delivered them to Anchorage with a delay of 2.5 hours.
