It must have been filmed in the morning of the 17th.
My reasons for believing this is that it looked very much like morning in the video (bright sun low on the horizon). And teams probably checked in fairly early on the 16th, but still to late for that morning light. Teams were released in the afternoon of the 17th so there is just about enough time to do the intros in the morning.
Regarding the other teams knowing about the NEL. There is a secret scene showing Scott & Blair arriving to a lounge area where the other teams are waiting during the pit stop. Scott & Blair tell them they were not eliminated. So from that it seems like some of the Eat, Sleep and Mingle is back.
Platrium:
Speaking of the eat-sleep-mingle that was common in earlier seasons, does this depend on the location they're in?
Some teams in recent seasons say they don't know who's out until the following leg, and they're just in their hotel rooms during the whole pit stop period. Meanwhile, we've seen teams see each other in the pit stop in Namibia (TAR26).

Racing includes time between pit start and pit stop, teams waiting for a flight or a HoO, and until the last team arrives.
I remember in TAR22 Legs 3 to 4, Mona & Beth said they've been racing for 4 days(?), ??? but that was considered 2 legs.
Day 1: Flight from Bora Bora to New Zealand
Day 2: Camping out in New Zealand
Day 3: New Zealand Leg
Day 4: Indonesia Leg
Was there something this long in just a span of one leg, or was it slightly shorter?

So why, in another Bonus Video, are all the teams so "shocked" when Scott & Blair arrive at the Airport and reveal they're still racing? ???

That wasn't filmed in an airport, but rather somewhere near the pitstop.
georgiapeach:
^^Absolutely correct. That is the place they were eating while waiting to do their interviews/soundbites/etc. So the timing is after the Pitstop, before the overnight sleep, definitely before Leg 2 and the reactions we see are real. Normally they cannot talk to each other but they were allowed to do so here.
