Hi, I'm arriving in Bilbao at 15.30hrs mid April to walk from Logroño onwards. There is one train around 15.30hrs. Álava bus company shows a schedule with a 16hr and 17hr bus from Bilbao intermodal line 17. I don't seem to find a way to ensure a seat by online booking. Any suggestions grateful appreciated. Thanks all.

Mid-April. Mid-week?

I’d not be bothered about booking ahead. Chances are that there’ll be seats on the bus. If not Bilbao is great city to spend a night if you have to and there’s plenty of inexpensive accommodations around the Intermodal
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.

Looks like you can buy advance tickets here.
