I think that the standardised check-in closing time for short-haul flights from Europe is 45 minutes. Should be indicated on the Boarding pass PDF. I passed through it earlier this week but didn't have a bag to check. BA is in terminal 1 hall A (the one in the middle, between hall B and the shed for LCCs that they call Terminal 2). I didn't save the PDF so I can't check...

NickB is our MRS specialist. 45 minutes is indeed the minimum and the airport terminal is not huge. If you plan to come by bus it can take a while and there can be traffic; train is far more dependable but you have to get off at Vitrolles-Aeroport station from which you need a short shuttle bus ride (a la LTN basically).

I have a lunch in Cassis and I'm up in the boondocks of Provence, so I just want to time my arrival for the flight back to SYD via LHR (not on BA all the way).
I haven't flown BA in a couple of years, but good FM it's average these days.
