Well, I am 99.9% positive I am not leaving for Italy as scheduled on the 12th. My flights was Atlanta - JFK - Milan and the JFK-Milan leg is actually an Alitalia flight (Delta code share) and it appears you can still book that ticket to Milan. I am sad but will call Delta when the wait isn't so long for a credit to be used in the next year. We travel to Italy often so that is fine.
My husband is currently in Italy - in Florence. He needs to take a test on Friday for a certification he has been studying for. He will be calling in the next couple of days to try to get home early next week. I am still not afraid of the virus, but with the restrictions and the screenings, I really don't want to be stuck, have to quarantine, etc. My company put out a message about limiting travel and self quarantining for 14 days if you travel to the impacted zones. While I could work from home for two weeks, I don't want to be THAT person. My husband, is retired with a hobby job so if he has to live in the basement by himself for two weeks that is not the end of the world. He wasn't supposed to come home until the 24th anyway.
I feel that the date of my travel being the 12th (next Thursday) is in what I would call the window of uncertainty, as we wait to see if Italy can successfully stabilize the situation over there are things start to heat up here. I feel that if I were going on April 12th instead, there may be a clearer path forward - although I know major airlines have cancelled flighst to Northern Italy until end of April. However, I would not be opposed to flying into a different airport.
But, Italy will be there and I will go as soon as I can. Good luck to everyone with the tough decisions.
ETA: I love Italy, my mom was born there, we speak the language, we have relatives, my husband has dual citizenship and we have spoken of potentially living there. A part of me hates to give up the trip because the economy there is so fragile and I sort of feel like I am throwing in the towel. But sometimes issues are bigger than you are, so to speak. Thanks for listening!
