Well, previously I would have said that EC261 would give you the same outcome if you were forced into leaving 2 days later, BA are offering the same Article 7 compensation to volunteers. However given recent CAA pronouncements it would appear you could insist on going on another airline rather than waiting 2 days. From Pisa the non-stop options are somewhat limited, the alternatives being Alitalia and, um, Ryanair. Which may also explain the shortage of seats....
