Transportation
From Ferihegy Airport you may take the "blue bus" service (No. 200E) to get to Ferihegy Railway Station, from where there is a direct rail link to Szeged. Trains to Szeged arrive from Budapest Nyugati Station at platform B. The two platforms of the railway station and the bus stop are connected with a pedestrian footbridge equipped with lifts.
Arriving travellers can buy their tickets at the ticket office at platform B or from a ticket vending machine. Each train between Budapest and Szeged has an Inter City carriage with compulsory seat reservation (360 HUF~1.3 EUR). You can buy your ticket and seat reservation at the ticket office at the same time. We advise to use the Inter City carriage.
If you are unable to obtain a ticket before getting on the train you might also try to buy one from the conductor onboard, however most probably he will also charge you extra penalty for not buying the ticket in advance.
