KLM flight cancelled due to Manston Airport closing

I am guessing an airport closing would be exceptional circumstances and I would not be entitled to compensation. Can anyone confirm this?

If they can only offer an alternative destination (London) can I claim overland costs to my desired destination?

Thank you in advance
