The Travel Channel launched on February 1, 1987, under the ownership of Trans World Airlines. The name was derived from travel-related filler programming broadcast on premium cable channel Home Theater Network. TWA purchased the rights to the Travel Channel name from HTN owner Group W Satellite Communications in 1986, and the Travel Channel took over HTN's satellite transponder position after that network ceased operations in January 1987. This logo was used before Discovery Communications bought the channel.
