Origin:

Middle English (Northern and Scots), originally the same word as travail (by semantic change from “to toil, labor,” then “to make a laborious journey,” then “to journey,” a change that did not occur in French and other Romance languages). The spelling travel is due to a shift in accent in the 14th century; verb senses were first recorded in 1250–1300; noun senses were first recorded in 1400–50. Dictionary 2: C14 travaillen to make a journey, from Old French travaillier to travail. —Dictionary.com. // 

First Known Use of travel: Verb: 14th century. Noun: 14th century. History and Etymology for travel: Verb: Middle English travailen, travelen to torment, labor, strive, journey, from Anglo-French travailler. —Merriam-Webster.
