Due to the continued spread of coronavirus (COVID-19), Delta Air Lines announced today that it is temporarily suspending service between Atlanta and Rome beginning Wednesday, March 11 through April 30, and is delaying the seasonal Detroit to Rome service, originally scheduled for April 1, until May 1.
The carrier will also be extending its suspension of service from New York to Milan to May 20, and New York to Venice to May 21.
The airline will offer direct service from JFK to Rome five times weekly through April 30, which will serve as Delta’s only flight to Italy during this period.
“Customers with affected travel plans can go to the My Trips section of delta.com to help them understand their options. These may include rebooking on alternate Delta flights, rebooking on flights after April 30, rebooking on alternate or partner airlines, refunds or contacting us to discuss additional options,” said Delta Air Lines in a statement on its website.
“The airline will continue to monitor the situation closely and may make additional adjustments as the situation continues to evolve.”
