You may try claiming compensation in Spain under the EU law – perhaps more favourable interpretation of ‘schedule change’.
Just quoting the article below: “UK regulator the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) confirms where schedule changes are to the time or date (not the flight number), these are only covered by airline T&Cs, not by any law.”
261 is currently, for all practical purposes, the same in the UK as in the EU and Spain is a very unfriendly place to bring a case.
