Kelly Carrillo is a corporate flight attendant based out of the San Francisco Bay area.

Known for her elegant culinary creations, intuitive service style and genuine passion for hospitality; Kelly specializes in international travel with Owner/Part 91 clients as well as creatively sourcing and preparing delicious meals inflight.

​​“I love it whenever I walk out of the galley with beautifully plated meals, everyone’s eyes go wide and I hear 'Wow'!

When my guest compliments me on their meal and asks for recipe details or where I got it; I love being able to say that I made it for them in the galley.

Those type of reactions are what I shoot for when I'm planning and sourcing for my guests. It's all about the details.”

Kelly is highly adaptable and has strong commitments to safety & sustainability. She seeks out opportunities to become up to date on the latest technology and loves to incorporate new tech inflight whenever possible to save paper and reduce waste.
​

​“The safety of my guests and crew is my number one priority. That is really the entire purpose of this role.

You need to be confident in order to show that you can be trusted in the event of an emergency.”

​Surprising her guests with thoughtful service and details is one of Kelly’s favorite parts of her role as a flight attendant.

“I pride myself on being creative and resourceful. My background working as an EA & PA gave me the skills to understand impact, organization and the ability to anticipate my owner/crew/guests needs before they even realize they have one. I have to be a bit of a mind reader in a lot of ways.

My goal is to always create a thoughtful and seamless experience for my clients and their family, making them feel relaxed and to always make them shine in the eyes of their guests.”
​

"Living in Napa allows me access
​to some of the top restaurants, bakeries and wineries in the country.

I love that the bar for quality and innovation is high here, so finding ways to incorporate and adapt my culinary inspiration inside the cabin is one of the most exciting parts of my job!"
