Going in/out of BKK multiple times is probably lesser of all the evils.
I know but I can't travel at other dates since Mrs. Seamaster depends on school holidays (PhD). That's also why I choose to spend Jan 30 to Feb 6th at the Nakamanda in Krabi to avoid the crowd.

Yes I'm aware of this, I saw them at the MO DD in Chiang Mai, it's just awfully noisy and crowded at that period of time.

THanks to all of you for these pieces of advice. It seems I won't have more choices than what I already have. Except if a miracle happens with promo awards but I'm not counting too much on it.
