The move has reportedly been fuelled by the month long lockdown in England and fears that travellers in the South West of England could circumvent their travel ban by booking holidays from Cardiff Airport.
Cardiff Airports primary carrier, TUI, has already cancelled all holidays from England during the lockdown.
