"Várlak a repülőtéren."

Translation: I wait for you at the airport.

[Omgeggrollz]

It says repülőtéren means AT the airport, but can it not mean IN the airport? would you ever use repülőtérben?

[Judit294350]

As I understand it repülőtér always takes -re/-en/-rõl

[carolgoslen]

Good question! I wondered the same thing.

[SedatKlc]

what is the difference between repülőtéren and repülőtérben?

[picardy33rd]

I think it's because repülőtér comes from tér (square, as in town square), which Hungarian construes as a 2d object that you stand on rather than in. So whether it's a városi tér or a repülőtér, it's térEN. Though I'm a learner too, so take my analysis with a grain of salt.
