Running time is the difference between the first and last printed times of the longest trip (Povoação → Ponta Delgada: 75 min, 14:30–15:45) (Ponta Delgada → Povoação: 75 min, 10:00–11:15). AzoresBus prints no frequency and no journey time; both are read from the table, not stated by the operator.

What goes wrong on this line
Only the 07:00 from Povoação and the 19:00 from Maia (Chá Gorreana) run all year; the 14:30 from Povoação and the 10:00 and 12:00 from Ponta Delgada carry the school-day (E) code [source]. The 07:00 ends at Maia (Chá Gorreana) and does not reach Ponta Delgada; the 19:00 starts there [source].
