This was on my airline website (US Air), and is the first I'd heard of needing to get a travel visa: As of January 12, 2009, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) requires all eligible travelers to use the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA), for travel to the U.S. as part of the Visa Waiver Program (VWP). All citizens of VWP eligible countries will be required to fill out an application from ESTA and beginning September 8, 2010, a $14 charge per application will be charged by the Department of Homeland Security. How did I miss this? All of you get visas for Italy travel?

Kathy, this is for non U.S. citizens entering the U.S. under the Visa Waiver Program. This does not apply if you are a U.S. citizen returning to the U.S
