Get another job that pays you more money and gives more flexibility for time off. Putting in months in advance feels so 1970s.
Yes. This. I'd planned months ahead for medical appointments only to be messed around with 'other strategies' to control my 'outside' life. Get rid. Find another job. Many never have to put up with that sort of behavior.

Just tell them you are taking the time off. Don’t ask. Just tell them.
Pro
I mean, I get it. My job has 'busy seasons' half the months of the year, which significantly reduces the options for taking vacations. It's reduced even more now that my kids are going into high school and don't want to miss a week of school. If I were you, I'd suggest getting the time approved before booking something.
