travel during H-1 transfer

We have AP approved and NIW based I-485 is still pending. I am using H-1 to work for company A in CA. I accept an offer from company B in NC. Company B will sponsor my H-1 transfer. (I still want to keep H-1 status before the approval of I-485.) I will be in the payroll of Company A until I start in Company B. We plan to travel abroad in the end of year during my job transition using my vacation time. The questions are:
1) Can we safely return with AP?
2) Will the H-1 transfer be affected if the case is adjudicated when we are abroad?

I think we should use premium processing to get H1/H4 transfer done before we leave, then come back with AP.
Please give us some suggestion.
Thanks a lot.
