No

Informally yes, more difficult if you're in a chargeable role e.g. t&m. Fixed price is easier as client has less visibility.

I'm on BD and it's never a problem, just give a heads up to my team lead.

Informally (as in a call or convo with your team lead).

I believe you can actually move a set number of bank holiday days a year in the UK.
