Bangladeshi migrants trying to go to Saudi Arabia have found themselves in more trouble as airlines are now saying that hotel bookings for the seven-day on-arrival institutional quarantine must be done by passengers. Officials of Saudi Arabian Airlines yesterday said they can no longer help migrant workers with hotel bookings.

...... Many migrant workers yesterday helplessly ran from desk to desk at the Dhaka airport looking for help regarding hotel reservations. They also gathered in front of the Saudia airlines office in the capital's Karwan Bazar. They, however, found no designated person to talk to. Talking to this correspondent, several workers said the airlines were avoiding their responsibilities by asking passengers to complete the hotel booking procedure.
