"This insight we will provide at World Travel Market comes at a critical time, since we will be at the half-way milestone in the 90-day limited launch of .travel, which began on October 3rd. We are very much looking forward to sharing early .travel success stories," he said.

While the official launch of .travel will take place in January 2006, more than 30 leading travel industry organisations, including ASTA, WTTC and PATA have been involved in pre-authentication which began in July.

"Thousands of .travel registrants, representing every sector of the industry from entire countries to individually-owned travel service providers, have already been authenticated," said Andruff.

Tom Nutley, Chairman of RTE, organisers of World Travel Market, who will be speaking at the launch preview at World Travel Market, said: "The use of online resources for research and reservations has gone through the roof and .travel represents a major opportunity for the industry to be promoted universally. At the same time, it also strengthens consumer confidence when they buy travel and holidays direct from the web.

"The launch preview at World Travel Market is a timely opportunity for national and regional tourist offices, tour operators, hotels, resorts, cruise and ferry companies, tourist attractions and transport providers - in fact any company or organisation involved in the travel and tourism industry - to learn more about how they can be part of a much needed great new unifying dimension to the global industry."
