Wwyd? Partner going on holiday with romantic interest

Hi,
Not sure what to do really as I don’t even know if AIBU.
I’ve been with my partner for almost a year now. We have a great tome together but for a long time he was quite distant and closed off, whereas I am incredibly open about my feelings and it caused arguments. I found out a while ago he had a flirtation just before we got together with one of his best friends. They have booked a holiday in January as part of a wider group (five people in total).
I know he had feelings for her, he’s assured me he doesn’t any more and I trust him but it was right before we got together. I wouldn’t ever want to stop him going but I know I’m going to worry about it a lot - I’m quite an anxious person. Should I just speak to him about it? I don’t want to endlessly need reassurance from him, but I sometimes feel like he likes her more than me (they were very close and are quite huggy). But also they’ve been friends for years and I wouldn’t want to get in the way of that or cause animosity by bringing it up - I know if I’m going to be a part of his life, so is she. But as I said I’m already worrying. WWYD?

In his defense, not all people are good at letting their guard down. I wouldn't take from anything op has written that he's simply using her to bide his time.
