Order of people exiting the Freeport
Neil and Kat coming out of the Freeport, after TP de-inverted himself, should not have TP wait for N&K to come out of the Freeport.
Let me explain. When TP, Kat and Neil arrive back at the Freeport in Oslo, TP does his dance with himself and then enters the turnstile. Neil and Kat follow after TP to also de-inverse themselves. After all three of them are de-inversed (i.e. back in normal timeflow), they exit the Freeport to drive away in the yellow bus,
However, because Kat and Neil entered after TP in their inversed timeframe, it would mean that they had to come out of the Freeport before TP in normal timeflow. In the movie, this didn't happen, as we see TP clearly outside in the yellow bus waiting for K&N to exit the Freeport.
Or am I missing something?

You are right, in normal time they do come out re-verted 'before' TP has reverted.
Then they go hide somewhere until TP gets the yellow van.
The editing may be confusing as well, since they show Neil/Kat reverting when that actually happens well before TP reverted. but this would happen off screen and there is a reasonable amount of time where this could all happen.
I plotted the scene out to help visualize what may have occurred.
