About 2 mins into the video, there is a picture of a clock, but with the numbers 1 to 12 in the wrong places.
at 12:00 there is a 9
at 1:00 there is a 6
at 2:00 there is a 4
at 3:00 there is a 11
at 4:00 there is a 8
at 5:00 there is a 12
at 6:00 there is a 3
at 7:00 there is a 5
at 8:00 there is a 10
at 9:00 there is a 7
at 10:00 there is a 1
at 11:00 there is a 2
ie:
09
02 06
01 04
07 11
10 08
05 12
03
This is simple to solve. The first flight, to Casablanca, departs at 10:00. On the modified clock, 1:00 appears in the 10:00 position, so use the first letter of the city, C.
The second flight, to Milwaukee, departs at 7:00. On the modified clock, 5:00 appears in the 7:00 position, so use the fifth letter of the city, A.
Continue down the list of departures, converting the listed departure time using the modified clock to find the correct letter to use:
Casablanca 10:00 -> 01 => C
Milwaukee 7:00 -> 05 => A
St Petersburg 9:00 -> 07 => R
Mexico City 12:00 -> 09 => T
Rio de Janeiro 5:00 -> 12 => O
Bangalore 2:00 -> 04 => G
Johannesburg 3:00 -> 11 => R
Vancouver 11:00 -> 02 => A
Indianapolis 4:00 -> 08 => P
Stockholm 1:00 -> 06 => H
Buenos Aires 8:00 -> 10 => E
Bordeaux 6:00 -> 03 => R
The result: C-A-R-T-O-G-R-A-P-H-E-R
