BA2742 cancelled. Group of 4 rebooked onto 4 different flights

BA2742 tomorrow (Gatwick > Geneva) has been cancelled. My son and 3 friends have all been rebooked onto 4 different flights tomorrow! They are hiring a car on arrival so not great that they are now all on different flights arriving at different times. All Avios bookings on 3 possibly 4 separate bookings. They are all arriving more than 3 hours late. Any thoughts on compensation, does EU261 apply?

The likelihood of comp depends on the reason for the cancellation. What was the reason?

Not sure of the reason. Hoping someone on here can find out as I have seen done before.

They have managed to change their flights so they are all now on the same flight but still arriving about 5 hours later than originally scheduled!

That's a possibility on different PNRs I suppose. If they had been on the same PNR that never would have happened (except perhaps in a case with extremely limited seats available).
