I think they all do , but it depends on where you want to travel to if it’s Dubai or Qatar don’t bother. For the list of countries that accept the documents without visas or with visas , I use google
Hi guys!

I had Blue Travel documents during 5 years resident permit. I flow with many airlines and not problem with airlines. I had 3 times connection flights in Qatar (Doha Airport)and Etihad (Abu Dhabi Airport). You can fly with out any limits but you can't leaving airport building.

Airport staff will check your travel documents by phone with somebody before you go to aircraft even you was in same country 2 days ago and 10 times for last 3 months.

I visited WITH OUT visa: France, Spain, Andorra, Gibraltar, Germany, Netherland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Italy, San Marino, Monaco, Greece, Aruba, Dominican Rep., Georgia.

I visited WITH visa: Russia, Azerbajdzjan, Kazakhstan, Egypt.

Airlines who I flow with and no body ask me letter from embussy:
1. Etihad Airways (UAE)
2. Qatar Airways (Qatar)
3. Air Astana (KAZ)
4. Thomson Airways (UK)
5. Aeroflot (RUS)
6. British Airways (UK)
7. Azal (AZE)
8. Air Malta (MAL)
9. Lufthansa (GER)
10. FinnAir (FIN)
11. Aegea (GRE)
12. Tomas Cook (UK)
13. EuroWings (GER)
14. Brussel Airlines (BLG)
15. SwissAir (SWT)
16. EasyJet (UK)
17. Monarch (UK)
18. Georgian Airlines (GEO)
19. Small Planet (LIT)
20. Ryanair (IRL)
21. WizzAir (HUN)
I hold the blue convention travel document can someone tell me if I need a visa for Dominican Republic ?
HI, You no need a visa to visit Dominican Rep with Blue Travel Doc. I visited DR two times. I strongly recommend you to buy a travel voucher from embussy in London(online) for £15 to avoid queue in airport
Sorry I do not understand your message. I do need a visa or I do not for Dominican Republic with blue travel doc ?

Any reason why you cannot simply look at the relevant embassy/consulate websites for the information?? It is clearly published!!
