To be clear here, under EC261, if an operating airline cancels a service, it's the operating airline's responsibility to resolve it, not the frequent flyer scheme arranging tickets. It's nice if BA do something here, and they may be on the hook for it under contract law or the CRA provisions, but for EC261 protection all paths lead to Aer Lingus.
