Currently the script shuts down after a slot is found/notification is sent. There's been multiple occasions where the notification was received but by the time we book on the portal, it's too late. I think we should continue running the script even when notification is sent.

We can keep this option OFF by default and enable it through a --keep-alive flag.

That's a really good idea! Will add this feature.
