The crew advised their left hand engine was vibrating but was kept running, a normal landing back to Salzburg would occur. The aircraft landed safely back on runway 15 about 25 minutes after departure.

A replacement A320-200 registration 9H-EXY reached Kos with a delay of about 4:15 hours.

The occurrence aircraft returned to service about 33.5 hours after landing back.
