Despite a difference of opinion with his Gen Z son, Glenn Fogel insists on leaving hours early for the airport. That way he will never miss a flight. It’s one of many mantras that the Booking Holdings CEO adheres to.
Fogel presides over all of the travel company’s massive brands, including Priceline, Booking.com, Kayak, Agoda, and OpenTable, among others.
