19 July 2021 The plane that brought a group of young Italians from Malta back to Italy, where they had been stuck in quarantine due to some Covid-19 outbreaks linked to language schools, landed in Rome at about 12.20. According to what has been learned, some students will stop in Rome, while others will continue their journey to other locations.
Happy to be back, sorry for not being able to complete the English course, for many of them suspended only a few days from the start, and worried about their friends who still remained in Malta because they tested positive at Covid.
This was the mood of the first group of
58 Italian students
which, quarantined even if they had negative results in the Covid test, arrived today in Fiumicino with a charter flight organized by the Maltese authorities. Parents and relatives are waiting for them at the airport. "I cannot say that for me, with the return of my daughter, it is the end of a nightmare, but we are close to it", many say.
About thirty Germans also returned with them, all subjected to a new test before boarding. Other flights are expected in the coming days. The French and Spanish will leave Malta tomorrow.
