Most Tour Operators will NOT allow you to change dates, duration or departure/destination airports within 8-weeks of travel.

9. A pre-booked seat only guarantees that passengers on the same booking reference are seated together. This does not allow you to choose the seats you wish (e.g. windows, bulkhead or aisle seats). Requests or special needs can be arranged with our admin department for specific seats but are only requests and can never be guaranteed.
