You're writing in English. How was he supposed to know your itinerary?

So English defaults to the us, even if the majority of people on here from all over use it to communicate? Men du kanske föredrar att jag skriver på svenska för att visa var jag kommer ifrån. Problemet med det är sångröster inte så många.

In the absence of any other information about location, is it that outrageous a guess?
I don't think poster was being americentric, but patiently just saying "No, actually I was speaking of a flight between Stockholm and Paris" would have been kindly informative and helpful, without the "stupid Americans, think everything is about you" comment.
But as always you're free to be as triggered as you wish here.

It's not an outrageous guess. However, it wasn't a guess, it was an assumption. And that's a pretty outrageous assumption.
