| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Organization and Basis of Presentation | ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Organization—Bright Horizons Family Solutions Inc. (“Bright Horizons” or the “Company”) provides center-based child care and early education, back-up dependent care (for children and adult/elder dependents), tuition reimbursement program management services, college admissions advisory services, and other support services for employers and families in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Puerto Rico, Canada, and India. The Company provides services designed to help employers and families better address the challenges of work and family life primarily under multi-year contracts with employers who offer child care and other dependent care solutions, as well as other educational advisory services, as part of their employee benefits packages in an effort to improve employee engagement. Basis of Presentation—The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2018 and the condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required in accordance with U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2018 and the condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Stock Offerings—On January 30, 2013, the Company completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”) and issued a total of 11.6 million shares of common stock. The Company also authorized 25 million shares of undesignated preferred stock for issuance. Since the IPO, certain of the Company’s stockholders have sold a total of 52.3 million shares of the Company’s common stock in secondary offerings (“secondary offerings”), including 4.6 million shares in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Company has not received proceeds from the sale of shares in any of the secondary offerings. The Company purchased 0.8 million of the shares sold in the secondary offering in the three months ended March 31, 2018 from investment funds affiliated with Bain Capital Partners, LLC at the same price per share paid by the underwriter to the selling stockholders. The Company incurred $0.3 million in offering costs related to the secondary offering, which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses. As of March 31, 2018, investment funds affiliated with Bain Capital Partners, LLC did not hold any shares of our common stock. The board of directors of the Company authorized a share repurchase program of up to $300 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock, effective August 5, 2016, of which $34.9 million remained available at March 31, 2018. The share repurchase program has no expiration date. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, under Rule 10b5-1 plans, or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. Recently Adopted Pronouncement—In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (the “new revenue guidance”), which provides a single comprehensive model for revenue recognition. The FASB has subsequently issued various ASUs which amend or clarify specific areas of the guidance. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new revenue guidance is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018 and can be adopted using either a full retrospective or modified approach. The Company adopted the new revenue guidance using the modified retrospective method on January 1, 2018. Therefore, the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company expects the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be immaterial to the results of operations on an ongoing basis. The Company evaluated each revenue stream and applied the new revenue guidance as further discussed in Note 2. There was no material impact on the timing or amount of revenue recognized upon adoption and any cumulative prior period adjustment was determined to be immaterial and therefore there were no adjustments recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings upon adoption. The Company’s internal controls were not significantly impacted as a result of this accounting change and the Company has made the necessary changes to accounting policies and internal processes to support the new revenue guidance, including the related disclosures. New Accounting Pronouncements—In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This standard amends the existing guidance and requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms longer than twelve months. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Based on its preliminary assessment, the Company anticipates that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as all long-term leases will be capitalized on the consolidated balance sheet. The majority of the Company's consolidated lease portfolio represents leases of real estate for centers, corporate offices, and call centers. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (Topic 815), which expands and refines hedge accounting for both non-financial and financial risk components and aligns the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements. The guidance also makes certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of hedge accounting guidance and ease the administrative burden of hedge documentation requirements and assessing hedge effectiveness. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance with respect to cash flow and net investment hedge relationships existing on the date of adoption must be applied on a modified retrospective basis, and the new presentation and disclosure requirements must be applied on a prospective basis. This standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |

| Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Revenue Recognition | REVENUE RECOGNITION General The Company generates revenue from fees for services based on the consideration specified in contracts with customers, which primarily consist of employer sponsors and parents. The Company recognizes revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the promised services to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct service to the customer. At contract inception, the Company assesses the services promised in the contract and identifies each distinct performance obligation. To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers the services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation using the relative stand-alone selling price and recognized as revenue when, or as, control of the service is passed to the customer. Revenue is recognized over time because control of the service is transferred continuously to our customers. Nature of Services The Company’s services are comprised of full service center-based child care, back-up dependent care, and educational advisory services, which also represent the Company’s operating and reportable segments. Full Service Center-Based Child Care Full service center-based child care includes traditional center-based child care and early education, preschool, and elementary education. Revenue generated from full service center-based child care services is primarily comprised of tuition paid by parents and fees from contractual arrangements with employer sponsors. Tuition is determined based on the age of the child, the child’s attendance schedule, and geographic location. Tuition is typically billed on a monthly basis, which is consistent with the timing of the delivery of services. The Company enters into contracts with employer sponsors to manage and operate their child care and early education centers for a management fee. These arrangements generally have a contractual term of three to ten years with varying terms and renewal options, and may also include operating subsidies paid either in lieu of or to supplement parent tuition. Management fees and subsidies are typically billed on a monthly basis, which is consistent with the timing of the delivery of services. Revenue for full service center-based child care is recognized over time as services are rendered. Back-Up Dependent Care Services Back-up dependent care services consist of center-based back-up child care, and in-home care for children and adult/elder dependents. The Company provides back-up dependent care services through the Company’s full-service and dedicated back-up centers, as well as through the Back-Up Care Advantage (“BUCA”) program. BUCA offers access to a contracted network of in-home service agencies and center-based providers in locations where the Company does not otherwise have centers with available capacity. Back-up dependent care revenue is primarily comprised of fixed and variable fees or subsidies paid by employer sponsors and co-payments collected from users at the point of service. These arrangements generally have contractual terms of three years with varying terms and renewal options. Fees for back-up dependent care services are typically determined based on the number of back-up uses and are generally billed monthly as services are rendered or in advance. Revenue for back-up dependent care is recognized over time as services are rendered. Educational Advisory Services The Company’s educational advisory services consist of tuition reimbursement program management and related educational consulting services (“EdAssist”), college admissions advisory services (“College Coach”), and other employer sponsored services. Educational advisory services revenue is primarily comprised of fixed and variable fees paid by employer clients, network school partners, as well as retail fees collected from users at the point of service. These arrangements generally have contractual terms of one to three years with varying terms and renewal options. Fees for educational advisory services are determined based on the expected number of program participants and the services selected, and are generally billed in advance. Revenue for educational advisory services is recognized over time as services are rendered. Disaggregation of Revenue The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers into segments and geographical regions. The Company determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by segment and geographical region (in thousands):
Deferred Revenues The Company’s payment terms vary by the type of services offered. Tuition collected from parents is typically billed and collected monthly in advance. Fees collected from employer sponsors may be billed annually or quarterly in advance or may be billed monthly in arrears. The Company’s standard payment terms generally align with the timing of the services performed and do not include a financing component. The Company has the unconditional right to consideration as it satisfies the performance obligations, therefore no contractual assets are recognized. The Company records deferred revenues when payments are received in advance of the Company’s performance under the contract, which are recognized as revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. The increase in the deferred revenue balance for the three months ended March 31, 2018 is primarily due to payments received or due in advance of satisfying the Company’s performance obligations, offset by $102.8 million of revenue recognized that was included in the deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2017. There were no significant changes in deferred revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2018 related to business combinations, impairments, cumulative catch-up or other adjustments. Practical Expedients The transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations relates to services that are paid or invoiced in advance. The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original contract term of one year or less, in accordance with the practical expedient, or variable consideration allocated to the unsatisfied performance obligation of a series of services. The Company’s deferred revenue not subject to the practical expedients is not material. The Company applied the practical expedient of expensing costs incurred to obtain a contract if the amortization period of the asset is one year or less. Sales commissions are immaterial and are expensed as incurred in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income. |

| Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
| Acquisitions | ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS The Company’s growth strategy includes expansion through strategic and synergistic acquisitions. The goodwill resulting from these acquisitions arises largely from synergies expected from combining the operations of the businesses acquired with our existing operations, as well as from benefits derived from gaining the related assembled workforce. 2018 Acquisitions During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company acquired five centers in the Netherlands and five centers in the United States, in two separate business acquisitions, which were each accounted for as business combinations. The centers were acquired for cash consideration of $16.7 million, net of cash acquired of $0.4 million, and consideration payable of $4.0 million. The Company recorded goodwill of $16.9 million related to the full service center-based child care segment, a portion of which will be deductible for tax purposes. In addition, the Company recorded intangible assets of $1.0 million, consisting of trademarks and customer relationships that will be amortized over two to four years, as well as fixed assets of $3.7 million in relation to these acquisitions. The allocation of purchase price consideration is based on preliminary estimates of fair value; such estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). As of March 31, 2018, the purchase price allocations for these acquisitions remain open as the Company gathers additional information regarding the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The operating results for the acquired businesses are included in the consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition, which were not material to the Company’s financial results. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company paid $2.7 million for the partial settlement of contingent consideration related to an acquisition completed in 2016. Additionally, prepaid expenses and other current assets as of March 31, 2018 include a $23.1 million deposit paid for the acquisition of full service child care centers in April 2018. 2017 Acquisitions During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company acquired ten centers in the Netherlands, three centers in the United States, and one center in the United Kingdom in seven separate business acquisitions, which were each accounted for as business combinations. The centers were acquired for cash consideration of $21.5 million, net of cash acquired of $0.3 million, and consideration payable of $0.2 million. The Company recorded goodwill of $14.3 million related to the full service center-based child care segment, a portion of which will be deductible for tax purposes. In addition, the Company recorded intangible assets of $2.3 million, consisting primarily of customer relationships that will be amortized over three to five years, as well as fixed assets of $7.3 million, deferred tax liabilities of $0.6 million, and a working capital deficit of $1.3 million in relation to these acquisitions. The allocation of purchase price consideration is based on preliminary estimates of fair value; such estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). As of March 31, 2018, the purchase price allocations for five of the 2017 acquisitions remain open as the Company gathers additional information regarding the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The operating results for the acquired businesses are included in the consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition, which were not material to the Company’s financial results. 2017 Dispositions During the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Company disposed of its remaining three centers in Ireland for a loss of $3.7 million, which was included in other expenses in the consolidated statements of income, offset by a tax benefit of approximately $7.0 million that was recorded from the loss on investment of a subsidiary. |

| Credit Arrangements and Debt Obligations | CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS AND DEBT OBLIGATIONS Senior secured credit facilities The Company’s $1.3 billion senior secured credit facilities consist of a $1.1 billion secured term loan facility and a $225 million revolving credit facility. The term loans mature on November 7, 2023 and require quarterly principal payments of $2.7 million, with the remaining principal balance due on November 7, 2023. Outstanding term loan borrowings were as follows at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (in thousands):
The revolving credit facility matures on July 31, 2022. Borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit facility were $129.4 million at March 31, 2018 and $127.1 million at December 31, 2017. All borrowings under the credit agreement are subject to variable interest. Effective as of November 30, 2017, the date of the latest credit agreement amendment, borrowings under the term loan facility bear interest at a rate per annum of 1.0% over the base rate, or 2.0% over the Eurocurrency rate (each as defined in the credit agreement), which is the one, two, three or six month LIBOR rate or, with applicable lender approval, the twelve month or less than one month LIBOR rate. With respect to the term loan facility, the base rate is subject to an interest rate floor of 1.75% and the Eurocurrency rate is subject to an interest rate floor of 0.75%. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate per annum ranging from 0.50% to 1.0% over the base rate, or 1.50% to 2.0% over the Eurocurrency rate. The effective interest rate for the term loans was 3.88% and 3.57% at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate was 3.61% and 3.50% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The effective interest rate for the revolving credit facility was 4.27% and 3.70% at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The weighted average interest rate for the revolving credit facility was 3.70% and 4.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Certain financing fees and original issue discount costs are capitalized and are being amortized over the terms of the related debt instruments and amortization expense is included in interest expense. Amortization expense of deferred financing costs were $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

All obligations under the senior secured credit facilities are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries. The senior secured credit facilities contain a number of covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, may restrict the ability of Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary, and its restricted subsidiaries, to: incur certain liens; make investments, loans, advances and acquisitions; incur additional indebtedness or guarantees; pay dividends on capital stock or redeem, repurchase or retire capital stock or subordinated indebtedness; engage in transactions with affiliates; sell assets, including capital stock of our subsidiaries; alter the business conducted; enter into agreements restricting our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and consolidate or merge. In addition, the credit agreement governing the senior secured credit facilities requires Bright Horizons Capital Corp., our direct subsidiary, to be a passive holding company, subject to certain exceptions. The revolving credit facility requires Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC, the borrower, and its restricted subsidiaries, to comply with a maximum consolidated first lien net leverage ratio that is a quarterly maintenance based financial covenant. A breach of this covenant is subject to certain equity cure rights. The future principal payments under the term loans at March 31, 2018 are as follows (in thousands):
Interest Rate Swap Agreements The Company is subject to interest rate risk as all borrowings under the senior secured credit facilities are subject to variable interest. On October 16, 2017, the Company entered into variable-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements to mitigate the exposure to variable interest arrangements on $500 million notional amount of the outstanding term loan borrowings, effective October 31, 2017. These swap agreements, designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges from inception, are scheduled to mature on October 31, 2021. The Company is required to make monthly payments on the notional amount at a fixed average interest rate, including the applicable rate for Eurocurrency loans, of approximately 3.90%. In exchange, the Company receives interest on the notional amount at a variable rate based on the one-month LIBOR rate, subject to a 0.75% floor. The interest rate swaps are recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at fair value and classified based on the instruments’ maturity dates. The Company records gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps to other comprehensive income or loss to the extent that the swaps are effective as hedges. As of March 31, 2018, there was no ineffectiveness related to the interest rate swap agreements. Gains and losses recorded to other comprehensive income or loss are reclassified into earnings and recognized to interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statement of income in the period that the hedged interest expense on the term loan facility is recognized. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements was as follows (in thousands):
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the effect of the interest rate swap agreements on other comprehensive income was as follows (in thousands):
During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that a gain of $1.2 million, pre-tax, will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss and recorded as a reduction to interest expense, related to these interest rate swap agreements. |

| Earnings Per Share | EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method, which requires the allocation of earnings to each class of common stock outstanding and to unvested stock-based payment awards that participate equally in dividends with common stock, also referred to herein as unvested participating shares. The Company’s unvested stock-based payment awards include unvested shares awarded as restricted stock awards at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors. The restricted stock awards generally vest at the end of three years. Earnings per Share - Basic The following table sets forth the computation of earnings per share using the two-class method (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Income Taxes |

| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES The Company’s effective income tax rates were an expense of 14.8% and a benefit of 1.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The effective income tax rate is based upon estimated income before income tax for the year, by jurisdiction, and estimated permanent tax adjustments. The effective income tax rate may fluctuate from quarter to quarter for various reasons, including jurisdictional income tax rate changes such as the enactment of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) in December 2017, which changed the federal tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective January 1, 2018, discrete items such as the settlement of foreign, federal and state tax issues and, beginning January 1, 2017, for the effects of including the excess tax benefits associated with the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock as a reduction of tax expense, in accordance with ASU 2016-09: Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the excess tax benefit decreased tax expense by $5.5 million and $15.1 million, respectively. The excess tax benefit decreased from the prior year due to the reduction in the federal corporate tax rate and lower volume of equity transactions. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, prior to the inclusion of the excess tax benefit from stock-based compensation, the effective income tax rates approximated 28% and 35%, respectively. The Tax Act also introduced the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) concept, which requires certain income earned by foreign subsidiaries to be included in U.S. taxable income, effective January 1, 2018. The Company included an estimate of the GILTI in the calculation of the estimated annual effective tax rate as of March 31, 2018. The estimate could be impacted by the mix of international earnings and by additional guidance that may be issued on the implementation of GILTI rules. The SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the date of the Tax Act enactment for companies to complete the accounting under Accounting Standards Codification 740—Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). In accordance with SAB 118, to the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete, but the company is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in its financial statements. The Company’s accounting for certain elements of the Tax Act is incomplete. As noted at December 31, 2017, the Company was able to make reasonable estimates of certain items and recorded provisional adjustments associated with the deemed repatriation transition tax and net deferred tax liability. As of March 31, 2018, there are no changes to the recorded provisional amounts. However, the Company continues to gather additional information to complete the accounting for these items and expects to complete the accounting within the prescribed measurement period. The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits were $2.1 million and $1.9 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Company expects the unrecognized tax benefits to change over the next twelve months if certain tax matters settle with the applicable taxing jurisdiction during this time frame, or, if the applicable statutes of limitations lapse. The impact of the amount of such changes to previously recorded uncertain tax positions could range from zero to $2.1 million, exclusive of interest and penalties. The Company and its domestic subsidiaries are subject to audit for U.S. federal income tax as well as multiple state jurisdictions. U.S. federal income tax returns are typically subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and have a statute of limitations of three years; therefore, tax filings for 2014 through 2017 are subject to audit. State income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing of the respective return. The state impact of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states. As of March 31, 2018, there were two audits in process and the tax years from 2012 to 2017 are subject to audit. The Company is also subject to corporate income tax at its subsidiaries located in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, India, Canada, Ireland, and Puerto Rico. The tax returns for the Company’s subsidiaries located in foreign jurisdictions are subject to examination for periods ranging from one to seven years. |

Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
3 Months Ended |

Mar. 31, 2018 | |
| Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
| Fair Value of Financial Instruments | FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The Company uses observable inputs where relevant and whenever possible. Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and borrowings on the revolving credit facility approximates their fair value because of their short-term nature. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is based on current bid prices, which approximates carrying value. As such, the Company’s long-term debt was classified as Level 1, as defined under U.S. GAAP. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the carrying value and estimated fair value of long-term debt was $1.1 billion. In 2017, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements, which were included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of the interest rate swaps were $10.5 million and $3.8 million, respectively, which were estimated using market-standard valuation models. Such models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs. Additionally, the fair value of the interest rate swaps included consideration of credit risk. The Company used a potential future exposure model to estimate this credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”). The inputs to the CVA were largely based on observable market data, with the exception of certain assumptions regarding credit worthiness. As the magnitude of the CVA was not a significant component of the fair value of the interest rate swaps, it was not considered a significant input. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is classified as Level 2, as defined under U.S. GAAP. During the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and year ended December 31, 2017, the Company had no transfers of assets or liabilities between any of the above hierarchy levels. Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. There were no significant changes to the Company's exposure of credit risk during the three months ended March 31, 2018. |

Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required in accordance with U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2018 and the condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. |
| New Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Adopted Pronouncement—In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (the “new revenue guidance”), which provides a single comprehensive model for revenue recognition. The FASB has subsequently issued various ASUs which amend or clarify specific areas of the guidance. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new revenue guidance is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018 and can be adopted using either a full retrospective or modified approach. The Company adopted the new revenue guidance using the modified retrospective method on January 1, 2018. Therefore, the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company expects the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be immaterial to the results of operations on an ongoing basis. The Company evaluated each revenue stream and applied the new revenue guidance as further discussed in Note 2. There was no material impact on the timing or amount of revenue recognized upon adoption and any cumulative prior period adjustment was determined to be immaterial and therefore there were no adjustments recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings upon adoption. The Company’s internal controls were not significantly impacted as a result of this accounting change and the Company has made the necessary changes to accounting policies and internal processes to support the new revenue guidance, including the related disclosures. New Accounting Pronouncements—In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This standard amends the existing guidance and requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms longer than twelve months. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Based on its preliminary assessment, the Company anticipates that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as all long-term leases will be capitalized on the consolidated balance sheet. |

| Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block] | The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The Company uses observable inputs where relevant and whenever possible. Level 1—Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
