Well, she had some kind of inside knowledge where she knew that insurance would probably provide a payout for the flight.
I'd like to know what this inside knowledge is? What did she know that she could use to predict that a flight would probably be delayed?

At least in the USA, information on previous flights (on time / delayed / canceled) is public. Routes are pretty fixed. Combined with weather forecasts, that is probably enough information to turn a profit. I guess from the article she had "insider information", but I'm not sure why that would be necessary to use this scheme?
