The books and stationery giant will instead focus on opening new stores in UK airports and train stations, as well as opening shops in the US and Europe.
WH Smith said last month it plans to open 120 new shops worldwide after its sales surged following the end of travel restrictions.
The company saw sales in its UK travel arm jump to £314million, up 66% from £189million compared to a year ago.
