The tool allows you to search and check the availability of 11,000,000 generic city domains based on geographic filtering.

Filter by country, region, subregion and population…..

The city database contains 11,000,000 records and allows to set a search filter by continent, country, region, or subregion with another filter for the number of inhabitants.

For example, it is possible to find out with a simple search, which cities in the United States with more than 50,000 inhabitants have their generic name available with the .travel extension, or even which names are available for all cities in the world with a population of up to 1,000,000 inhabitants.

In this first version, the tool shows the names of the cities in their native spelling but in following “upgrades” we are planning to add an idiomatic option that allows you to see the results in specific languages; the names of cities in their native spelling in Spanish, French, German, Italian or Russian for example.

The tool is particularly interesting in this period during which .travel is celebrating 10 years of service to the travel industry and is now open to anyone who is interested in a .travel domain name, whether it is a company, a tourism office or simply an individual who wants to start a venture in the field of “travel”.

In practice this means that any person, company or tourism office that simply has an interest in developing a city portal can find and register their generic name with .travel, which is especially valuable when you consider that .travel is the preferred domain for countries and their tourism promotion programs.

Google produces 200,000 results for official .travel destination pages; check it out:

https://www.google.com/search?q=intitle:official+site:.travel

And more than 13,000,000 results for .travel pages that are official sites, corporations or simply blogs, and private or small business pages; check it out: https://www.google.com/search?q=site:.travel

dotTravel City Finder © lets you see the availability of all geo-domain names in a specific area of influence; an upcoming tourism agency working with a domain of this type can become a source of continuous traffic.

Also, a tourism office can follow in the footsteps of reputable countries that use .travel for their main site such as Germany.travel, Argentina.travel or the even the renowned Seychelles.travel, which redirects their .com to their .travel site; there are examples of more than fifty countries that are promoted to the world via .travel, the “standard” in the sector (you can read .travel at Fitur – International Fair of Tourism 2017 here: http://www.travel.travel/blog/fitur-2017-a-very-positive-edition-for-travel/).

Check the Leipzig.travel interview here:

The perfect domain to promote our beautiful city and region”

Of course, an individual user can register a city name and develop on it; there are numerous examples that have over time become successful business models.

Check the SanSebastian.travel interview here:

We realized that .travel was the most suitable one because of its clear relation to tourism”

I initially liked your comment, but after I've seen you've disliked my comment I've changed my mind.

now I un-dislike and like your comment, because I understand the sense of "useless" on your comment (after you "liked" mine)

I understand could be useless in terms of "investment" from your point of view considering "good ones" only the capital country names for example...but the option to check the name of your city or the names close to there could be interesting for lot of people maybe, it depends on where you live of course, not the same if you are from Germany where Germany.travel is the official or Alabama which is the same...

What I can say is I registered most of my .travel geo names, 3 - 4 years ago. I own around 100 actually. And I sold out about 60 names (average 3500$)

Is like premium tld at good cost in eyes of end user. Their price prevent them in front of spammers for example. And is very trusted because the countries question. Check http://www.travel.travel/blog/fitur-2017-a-very-positive-edition-for-travel/
I frequently used it on negotiations.
At same time for domainers out of the travel business (I have dev company too) is hard but the true is that 95% of .travel owners are end users, is for it after all is not hard to sell. This link is interesting too http://www.travel.travel/live-sites/
