The annoyances described by the author sounded like they relied on Javascript and graphics.
This made me wonder if the site relies on Javascript or graphics.
As an experiment, I just wrote a small POC command line script for
1. searching for hotels by keyword
2. obtaining the hotel ids
3. searching availability using the hotel id
4. printing prices, etc.
If anyone wants this I will share it.
Easily adaptable to bulk searching, producing CSV, etc.
Again, this site does not require Javascript or graphics for getting price lists.
Easy to avoid the "dark patterns" and just retrieve the desired data.
I use a text-only browser.
