Bus from Madrid airport to Pamplona

Think I've asked before, but can't find it now!
If I arrive at 1:45pm, will there be enough time to get the bus leaving for Pamplona at 3:15pm (1.5hrs) from the Terminal 4 at the airport? If not, will have to take the 7:15pm one, and then get to Pamplona at 1:00am. Booked accommodation in Pamplona already. Not planning on checking my bag in, so no luggage collection, only immigration to get through. Is it cutting it fine?

Alternatively, if I take the train at 7:35 pm, is it too late to get into Pamplona at 10:40pm? Accommodation has already said a late arrival is fine, but will it be difficult arriving at the train station that time of night and getting a taxi to the accommodation?

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
I arrived the same time and had plenty of time to get the 3:15 bus. It’s a short taxi ride to the bus station and you might run into other people trying to do the same thing like I did and you can share the taxi so it’s pretty cheap.
