I'm wondering which booking class will offer me greater flexibility in terms of changing the dates of my flight.

Thank you.

Y booking class is more flexible than E, and E usually runs out of availability before Y, which is not good if you want to change plans. I don't think you'd want to pay $70 more for less flexibility.
