There's no ticket control on RegioJet trains.

It's the same price and RJ crew start checking after Kelenföld. But you can also rebook at no cost (but I wouldn't try it if the train is almost full and you cannot find other seats you like, sometimes it is buggy)

They are unlikely to check between these two stations. They usually start checking when the passengers settled down, after leaving Budapest.

Mine hasn’t even been checked once, not sure if there are any conductors at all lol

they normally don't control tickets as their system is different from other train companies. Conductors see in their system which seats are reserved, and they only control tickets if they see someone occupying a non-reserved seat or they are asking for proof for discounted tickets (e.g. student ID).

Don't worry, you can definitely board at Deli, it doesn't make a difference in your ticket price/reservation. They just automatically offer the ticket from Kelenföld to buy since it's an international train station.
