Turning up and hoping

Hi all,

My plans in Marseille haven't gone as expected (I didn't like the potential flatmates I came to meet), so I shall be returning to London ASAP. I only got a one way since I had no intention in returning for 3-4 months!

I came with BA. I'd like to get back to LHR or LGW. What would my chances be (I couldn't care less about waiting for 8 hours if it means a cheap flight home due to a cancellation) if I just turned up at BA or Easyjet here in marseille and said "My plans fell through, whats the cheapest and soonest you can get me home?". I have never done such a thing. I came here 1 way for £62, but all the flights are online are about £200+ !!!!!!

Do cancellations happen regularly? And if so, how would they charge me? The price of the cancelled ticket, or if I'm nice and charming, can I haggle?

Thanks in advance!

Dan
