AITA for ghosting my soon to be ex boss?

So basically, I’ve recently been offered a new higher paying/higher title job. In three days, I’m resigning from a position that I’ve been in for 2 years (mid tier leadership), and it will completely leave my current boss (VP) screwed. We are currently traveling out of state for a work trip (I work remotely, my company is headquartered out of state), and today I ignored all their calls and texts after I left the office (it was an invite to go out for drinks/food). Not trying to be an asshole, but I’m not exactly fond of them from a management standpoint. They fired my direct leader last summer without discussing with me (which was fine, didn’t really care for that person either), but I became expected to work the role of two people (manager/director). My VP passes every single thing off to me so they can skirt accountability on tasks,…

They fired my direct leader last summer without discussing with me (which was fine, didn’t really care for that person either), but I became expected to work the role of two people (manager/director). My VP passes every single thing off to me so they can skirt accountability on tasks, and I’ve grown tired of carrying the entire department – and they refuse to promote me because I’m remote/out of state, though my VP has out all their eggs into my basket and are desperate to keep me.
Anyway, I’m resigning when we return on Monday. Am I an asshole for ghosting??
