Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION	BASIS OF PRESENTATION Management of Booking Holdings Inc. (the "Company") is responsible for the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in this document, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and include all normal and recurring adjustments that management of the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and operating results. The Company prepared the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements following the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, the Company condensed or omitted certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in combination with the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these interim financial statements may not be the same as those for any subsequent quarter or the full year. Reclassification Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Stock Split On April 2, 2026, the Company effected the 25-for-1 stock split of its common stock (the "Stock Split") with a proportionate increase in the number of shares of authorized common stock, as approved by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") in January 2026. The shares of common stock retained their par value of $0.008. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Stock Split. Recent Accounting Pronouncements See "Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted" and "Other Recent Accounting Pronouncements" in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update to simplify the application of the current expected credit loss model for current accounts receivable and current contract assets under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The update provides a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. In the first quarter of 2026, the Company adopted the practical expedient and it did not have a material impact to its Consolidated Financial Statements.
