.travel is a top-level domain for the travel and tourism industry worldwide. Approved by ICANN in 2005, the .travel registry is run and operated by Tralliance Corporation in Fort Lauderdale, Florida under the leadership of President and CEO, Edward A. Cespedes.
With the Internet becoming more vast and authenticity a concern when doing business on the Internet, .travel is evolving to the definitive domain for all things travel. Any participant in the travel and hospitality industries may own a .travel domain name(s). However, unlike, its competitors (.com, .org, .net), the site must display content relevant to the domain name within 60 days of purchase.
Currently, there are over 230,000 .travel sites up and running.
Some outstanding .travel websites are:
Cancun.travel ReduceMyFootprint.travel South-Pacific.travel Utah.travel Discover.travel InTheWorld.travel SOS.travel Egypt.travel Canada.travel
