Delta Airlines claims that I can earn points on my Sky Miles account if an ITA flight is marketed by Delta. How do I tell if an ITA flight is marketed on Delta?
I plan to leave Jacksonville, FL to visit Florence for 3-4 weeks in May 2023. I am open to departing the US from any east coast location and arriving anywhere in central Italy (Milan, Rome, etc), assuming I can easily take the fast train to Florence. There is not a good selection of flights from Jacksonville, but I can easily get to NYC, Baltimore, Atlanta and others the day before I leave on the international flight. Is there a flight price tracking tool that allows that much flexibility on location as well as flexibility of a week or so in the DPT & ARR dates?

Dulles, Newark and JFK will be your best options
You won’t find much at all from Baltimore
Philly is a possibility

Are you trying to book one ticket from JAX to Florence? Or fly from JAX to a gateway like JFK or Dulles and then book a separate ticket from there to Florence?
If you book Delta from JAX to Florence I don’t see any codeshare flights with ITA. There are codeshares with KLM that have a layover in Amsterdam and with Air France that layover in CDG. Is there a reason you want to fly with ITA?

It would be an ITA flight you find while using the Delta site.

"It would be an ITA flight you find while using the Delta site."
More specifically, a Delta marketed flight will have a flight number beginning with DL (and not AZ, since we're talking about ITA.)
I would, however, be careful with this. Lufthansa might finally be getting close to acquiring ITA, after which any association with Delta or SkyTeam in general will be kaput.

Wow! thank you to everyone:) The Lufthansa acquisition possibility is especially helpful!
I will start a new topic as I feel the need to wander off this one a little...
Thanks again:)

Just curious, why not fly Delta? Since you can get to ATL, check Delta options departing there.
Since we live about an hour south of Hartsfield, we fly out of there. We have a Sky Miles AMEX card and put almost all our purchases on it. The last time we went to Italy, we were able to upgrade to first class and our tickets were less than $1,000 for both.
