I've bought Advance tickets from Keighley to Manchester Airport and Return through LNER.
I was surprised to find it's not possible to change these because they're printable tickets - I've been able to change printable tickets on other operators.
Looks like I'll need to remember to select TOD when I buy these - I was wanting to change the return date.
Are there any other operators determined to make life harder in this way?

Extract from restrictions on LNER said:
Changes to travel plans restrictions
Changes to time or date of travel must be arranged before departure of the first reserved train printed on the ticket, after which the ticket has no value and a new must be purchased. Customers will need to present the ticket(s) and reservation(s) when they request a change.
Changes to tickets cannot be made on board the train. If customers board a train without a reservation for that service, a new ticket(s) must be purchased.
The origin, destination and Train company or route shown on the original tickets must be the same as the new tickets required.
The difference between the price paid and the cost of the next of the next suitable fare for the journey is payable, plus a £10 administration fee per person, per single ticket for each change to a journey. If the customer(s) change to a train where a cheaper fare is available, the difference will not be refunded, but the administration charge is still applicable.
Note: This does not apply to 'Self-print' tickets as these tickets are not changeable.
