The cancellation rate is the number that matters on this page: cancellation is what triggers a refund right. Delay, in the United States, does not.

BA Euroflyer is a UK carrier — UK261 applies

Britain kept the European rules in domestic law when it left the EU. UK261 has the same thresholds and the same structure as EC 261, with the amounts set in pounds: roughly £220, £350 or £520 by distance, triggered by an arrival delay of three hours or more, a cancellation at short notice, or denied boarding.

It covers flights departing the UK on any airline, and flights arriving in the UK on a UK or EU airline. A BA Euroflyer flight from the UK is covered either way.

The one rule that applies everywhere

If BA Euroflyer cancels your flight and you decline the alternative, you are owed your money back for the unused portion — whatever the reason, weather included. A voucher is something you may accept, never something you can be required to take.
