The Discover Qatar website mentions that their page would be updated within the next 24 hours about the policies.

It now says

Further information will be available on 14 June.

does anybody have an idea what those changes will be ? I have a reservation at the transit Hotel for an insane $290/night. Would love to change that to a city hotel but would need to cancel by June 14th, 7AM EST ( 2PM Qatar time ) to avoid cancellation fees. Thank you

Edit: website says

Welcome home with Discover Qatar – information on booking your hotel for mandatory quarantine is currently being updated.

May be I misunderstood. Looks like it is only for people returning to Qatar and have to go into mandatory quarantine ?
