Not a fan of the modal popup that seems to force you to either click "Continue" or "Not Interested". You can't ESC it away and it completely blocks out all the relevant info about the trip.

How do I know if I'm interested or not if I can't even read your own description on the page and make a decision?

I worked with a guy once who implemented a popup asking for feedback on the website. By a huge margin the number one piece of feedback was "I don't like this popup", but he considered that to be an extraneous data point, threw it out of the results, and just kept on popping.

I completely understand this objection. Ultimately, this was a tough trade off that I made for reasons that I can elaborate on at a different point.

In most cases, the goal is to have an organizer create a quick video describing the trip to communicate enough info for you to then declare your preferences. Here is an example:

Either way, I just pushed a change to make the modal escapable.
