History

Licensed as "Travel TV" on November 24, 2000 by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC); the channel launched on September 7, 2001 as "CTV Travel". On October 30, 2006, CTV Travel was renamed as "travel + escape" to give the channel a new "edgier" look and feel to fit its new shift in programming towards more character-driven and experienced-based series rather than the typical travelogue shows.
