Brit husband, 36, vanishes after Benidorm stag do as family issue desperate plea after he was last seen on airport CCTV
A BRIT husband has vanished after a Benidorm stag do, sparking a major search operation and pleas from his family.
Jason Taylor, 36, was last spotted on CCTV leaving Alicante airport before his flight home – but never boarded and has not been seen since.
Jason was due to fly back to Birmingham from Alicante at 10:30am on Saturday, but failed to re-enter the airport building after heading out.
The Welsh engineer had been celebrating a stag do in Benidorm with mates.
His wife, Maria Taylor, 34, told the Spanish Eye that local cops had obtained CCTV of his last known movements.
She said that Jason “waited in the queue for the desk for about three to four minutes and then walked out the airport”, heading towards Torrellano, but hasn’t been seen since.
Jason had lost his phone so was without one when he left the building.
He was last seen wearing dark shorts, a collared white t-shirt and white trainers when he walked out, and was wheeling a black suitcase.
The desperate wife has flown out alongside other family members to join the search, alongside “loads of locals”.
Maria has “no idea” why her husband left the airport, but her running theory is that he went outside to “clear his head” and got lost.
Jason’s pal, Gaz Edmunds, explained how the missing Brit became separated from the group – and said the family is “worried sick”.
He said: “Jason had lost his phone so had to access his boarding pass from someone else in the group assisting who was already passed the gate.
“We tried several times to scan his boarding pass but it was not accepted and the gate would not open, an error message came up saying to contact the airline.”
Gaz said that Jason went to find assistance, with one of the group waiting by the gate for him to come back – but he never materialised.
The friend said this was “very unlike Jason”, and emphasised he was not “ill or drunk or incapable”.
He added that UK police had been informed of Jason’s disappearance and the case passed to Interpol, who have placed an alert on his passport.
Jason’s local police force, Dyfed-Powys, has also released a statement following his disappearance.
It reads: “Jason was due to flay home from a holiday in Spain on Saturday morning, 29th March 2025.
“Following an issue with his boarding pass, Jason began to queue for assistance, however he left the airport at Alicante on foot at about 9am without speaking to anyone.
“Jason is described as a white male, about five foot 10 inches tall, brown hair on the sides of his head and bald on top.”
