Transit is permitted when not leaving the airport.
Since you are leaving from a Country included in List E, or you have visited (or transited) a Country of List E in the 14 days prior to your trip to Italy, you must fill out a digital Passenger Locator Form (or, in case of lack of necessary technology, a self-declaration) indicating that you fall into one or more of the following categories:
  1. proven work reasons;
  2. absolute urgency;
  3. health reasons;
  4. study;
  5. return to one’s home, domicile or residence;
  6. citizens of the European Union (Italy included), of Schengen Member States, Andorra, Monaco, San Marino, Vatican City;
  7. family members of persons listed under letter f), as defined in Articles 2 and 3 of Directive 2004/38/EC dated April 29 2004;
  8. non-European Union citizens (third-country nationals) holding long-term residence status in a European Union country, in accordance with Council Directive 2003/109/EC;
  9. family members of the persons holding long-term residence status (letter h);
  10. entry into the national territory to reach the domicile / home / residence of a person referred to in letters f) and h) of this list, even if not cohabiting, with whom there is a proven and stable affective relationship.
If you travel under a “Covid-free Tourism Corridor”, in accordance with Order of September 28 of the Italian Minister of Health, kindly contact your Tour Operator for further information.

Covid-free Tourism Corridors refer only to travels arranged according to special health and safety protocols authorised by the Italian Ministry of Health and handled by tour operators. Countries/areas toward where Covid-free Tourism Corridors from Italy are in place are: Aruba, Maldives, Mauritius, Seychelles, Dominican Republic and touristic areas of Sharm El Sheikh and Marsa Alam in Egypt.

In any case, persons entitled to check your self-declaration/dPLF may ask you to provide them with evidence related to your statement (such as an employment letter, a medical certificate, a letter from an Italian school or University).

In order to enter Italy, you are required to:
  1. take a molecular test in the 72 hours before you arrive, or an antigen test in the 24 hours before you arrive, carried out by means of a swab and with negative result;
  2. inform your local Health Authority in Italy;
  3. self-isolate for ten (10) days at the address indicated in your dPLF. You can reach your domicile only by private means of transportation.
  4. take another molecular or antigenic test, carried out by means of a swab, at the end of the 10-day self-isolation. Exceptions are indicated below.
  5. Bear in mind that airport transit is allowed, provided that you do not exit designated areas within the airport.
Such provisions are in force until January 31, 2022, as per Order of December 14, 2021 of the Minister of Health.
The exemption you are quoting can't apply to you because public flights aren't "private means"
