cancellations at pisa

"Operational integrity" is certainly what was given as the reason for cancelling a load of flights at Pisa recently, specifically by the check-in people at the airport to a load of irate Italians and other travellers. Thankfully I was on the last night flight back to EMA but was sitting next to some canadians who were supposed to fly into BOH that morning when Ryanair cancelled their flight because the runway was having emergency repairs. The Canadians seemed to think they'd been assured they'd get up to £250 compensation to cover their hotel near EMA and train down to Bournemouth but I seriously doubted it. On the website it says the usual stuff about all out of Ryanair control so can't imagine they'll get lucky. But in summer most people haven't paid £1 per flight, usually much more. Seems a bit off to cancel flights and offer nothing. Can anyone confirm what would have happened?
