BOLDUAN: Americans denied entry to Italy, even after they landed on Italian soil. And as Scott McLean reports, that's not the only problem for American travelers right now.</s>SCOTT MCLEAN, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Kate, travelers from 59 countries will soon be allowed to come to England without the mandatory two-week quarantine requirement that is currently in place. The list includes countries like Spain, Italy, and France, all of which were once coronavirus hot zones. Noticeably absent, the United States. British transport secretary pointed out that the U.S. was quick to bar U.K. travelers from entering early on in the pandemic. And, of course, the U.K. has a sky- high infection rate that is showing no signs of slowing down. Now, that news comes as a private jet carrying five Americans was turned away after landing in Italy. The jet flew directly from Colorado to the Mediterranean island of Sardinia. Now, Italian authorities said that they tried to, quote, find a solution for the American travelers, but tut there was no way around the new E.U. rules, which allow travelers from more than a dozen countries but not the U.S. That plane, instead, departed for the U.K. where, of course, everyone on board will have to quarantine for two weeks -- Kate.</s>BOLDUAN: Scott, thank you so much. And thank you so much for joining us, guys. "AC360" starts now.
