Thanks in advance.
Delta's Website shows two flights (that they operate) tonight from KJFK - LIRF (FCO - Fiumicino, Italy), Flt 148 departing at 1650 EDT, and Flt 160 Departing at 1855 EDT.
FlightAware shows the flight plans filed yesterday -- they might give you a hint to the answer you're looking for.

I highlighted the part that seems to answer your question. It's likely she'll be on a North American Track (NAT).
You can use FlightAware later today to confirm that.
