Just fly to Vietnam or Malaysia? Most of foreigners don't need the visa to get there(Laos does) and you can fly for like 3k return. Just done that this week and surely better than a full day wasted to rush to border and get back

If you're going to fly from BKK, why not just a direct flight over the border? Might end up costing you less and coming back via the airports is an absolute breeze on the DTV
