To make it clear:

You can travel to Szeged directly from Ferihegy (Ferenc Liszt Airport)  
Terminal #1.
(The train stop is next to the Airport.) Keep in mind that you have to buy  
train tickets inside Terminal #1.
I suggest you to buy "InterCity seat reservation" ticket also, it's plus  
380 HUF.

I hope you won't but if you are lost somewhere just call me on  
+36703483668.

Cheers,
Zoltan
