[Python] EXERCISE: Not able to click the deny_cookies_button

I’m writing because I’ve hit a roadblock with a mini‑project. Despite asking ChatGPT for help and trying many different strategies—such as accessing preceding elements, switching iframes before clicking, adding delays, etc.—I’m still stuck and unsure how to proceed.

I recently learned Selenium through a tutorial and started this project to practice what I learned and build something useful at the same time. I’m scraping easyjet.com, and so far everything is working—except for one final hurdle: clicking the “Deny Cookies” button on the second GDPR/cookie consent popup.

I’ll include my full code so you can attempt to click the element yourself and explain how you do it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your help!
