Booking Holdings which Wikipedia has as the parent of booking.com seems to be US owned.

Yes. Booking Holdings Inc. is incorporated in Delaware, listed on the Nasdaq with principal executive offices in Connecticut. See SEC filing: https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0001075531/87dc4e5...

Had no idea booking.com was american. I always assumed it was euro-based.

Booking.com was founded in the Netherlands and is still headquartered there, but was bought by a US company (Priceline) well over a decade ago.

That makes sense. It just didn't have the energy of an American company and I say that as one. I love booking.com
