DH trip with FIL

My MIL passed away 1 year ago. This Xmas just gone, we went on holiday with FIL for a 2 week break, overseas, warm.

DH is going to be off work as a contract has ended and now he and FIL are suggesting this is a great opportunity to go to Antigua to watch the cricket.

I feel it’s a bit off, to leave me and our DD 8, 10 and go swanning off on a boys trip. FIL is welcome here any time, we spend time with him, we’ve taken a holiday together. Now he’s trying to take more time.

The money isn’t really an issue, so I’m wondering if actually IABU and just a bit jealous - i’f love to go, which I did jokingly suggest. Or am I reasonable to think that he’s being a bit selfish? Now MIL isn’t here to travel with him he wants DH to fill the gap. DH has ‘jokingly’ mentioned it so clearly if I said, book it, go; off he’d trot.

So AIBU to think, no don’t go.

Well I’m sure they’ll find the next place, but yes indeed a bit late for this particular game
