Under EU law (this was before Brexit) you are entitled to a full refund if the flight is cancelled by the airline. If the flight is cancelled less than two weeks before departure you are also entitled to compensation of a few hundred Euro. I actually got a cash refund from Ryanair, although it took a long time and at every stage they recommended I take vouchers that would have expired after 12 months instead.
