Weirdly, despite not completely considering his going missing for a few days OR his having an affair as necessarily being resignation worthy on their own, the combo of those two alone, even without the previous state funded trip, are enough to make me say that he should be done. The flakiness reflects on his competence.
(A guy under work related stress can completely detach himself from work for a few days, in my opinion. If your extra-martial affair hits the public, you could try to serve out your term if your ability to govern wasn't otherwise affected. But you can't just flake out, leave town, and go see your mistress for a few days to break up. Nope.)
The other trip on the taxpayers' dime just formalizes it.
And, it just seems really selfish to try to hold on. Who benefits from his not resigning? Only he does, as near as I can tell.
