Delta Air Lines, Aeroporti di Roma and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport have participated in a first-time transatlantic COVID-19 test program that enables quarantine-free entry from the USA to Italy. 

This is to be done in accordance with a decree due to be passed shortly by the Italian government. Accordingly, from December 19, Delta will test passengers and crews on newly introduced flights from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport to Rome-Fiumicino International Airport. The tests will quarantine all US citizens on arrival in Italy who are allowed to travel to Italy for essential reasons such as work, health and education, as well as all citizens of the European Union and Italy.

In order to be able to fly between Atlanta and Rome on Delta's COVID-tested flights, customers must perform a PCR test up to 72 hours before departure, a quick test at the airport before boarding, a quick test on arrival in Rome-Fiumicino and a Quick test before leaving for the United States.
