You have to be a travel agent or have a travel license something like that, $100 is only for application as far as I know. You can find more about this at Moniker.com
A list of registrars can be found at the official dot travel registry site: http://travel.travel/dnr.htm
I registered some travel domains some time ago, it was not that easy. You need to be in the travel industrie or at least have an existing travel website. If you want a special domain name, you could register yourname.xx (whatever TLD, we took HN) put some travel content on it and apply. The trick is, if you already have an existing domainname with travel content, this gives you the right to purchase the same domainname with .travel (yourname.travel) Worked fine for me!
Actually is open to everyone, they are on 10th years celebration, and since then: Travel domain names are available to everyone who provides or plan to provide services, products or content in or to the travel industry. New travel startups are welcome, and that includes every new travel content provider. Check here https://www.name.com/domains/travel or http://www.travel.travel
Hello, Yes, the Registry has reduced the number of restrictions. However if price is your main concern, you might want to try other TLD extensions that are related to travel like: .villa, .flights, .cruises, .holidays, .viajes and others. Happy hunting!
Yes but, .travel is a very trust one. More than 15.000.000 pages indexed, most of countries with their official sites with .travel (Canada.travel, Germany.travel, Argentina.travel ....) I own around 100 .travel domains, and I do not consider the nTLDs Check this https://www.google.com/search?q=site:.travel
