Why? It's only three days. The soil will stay moist. Placing it in a tray will make the roots rot, you loosing your plant.
I water my plants biweekly(two times a week), the soil feels dry but if I stick my finger in it, the center still feels moist.

Yea, Nepenthes should never be left in standing water. Good luck, and fun on your vacation!

You don't even need to give them water for a few days anyways. Your plant would have been fine either way.
