The fifth victim of a private jet crash that erupted into a fireball in Maine was identified as a successful sommelier taking part in a new travel company venture, according to a new report.
Wine expert Shelby Kuyawa, 34, was aboard the doomed plane Sunday as part of legal scion Tara Arnold’s trip to Paris under her new luxury travel company “Beyond,” sources close to the passengers told The Daily Mail.

The company allegedly provides invitation-only travel experiences for wealthy customers, including stays at five-star resorts and culinary adventures.
Kuyawa, one of six people killed in the horror crash, was set to tour a French chateau and take in other stunning locations as part of the trip, according to the Mail.
The sommelier reportedly met Arnold and her husband, Kurt, while working at the Kukio Golf and Beach Club in Hawaii’s Kamuela island.
Kuyawa and her colleague, Nick Mastrascusa, a top Hawaiian chef, were scooped up by the Arnolds to take part in Beyond late last year, the Mail reported.

Matrascusa, a father-of-three, was also among the six victims of the crash — as was Arnold, pilot Jacob Hosmer, 47, and event planner Shawna Collins.
Only one victim remains unidentified.

Kurt and his business partner, Jason Itkin, were not on the plane when it crashed, sources told ABC 13.
The Bombardier Challenger 600, owned by the Houston-based Arnold & Itkin law firm, flipped over and burst into flames during takeoff from Bangor International Airport around 7:45 p.m. Sunday.

The Paris-bound private jet was stopping to refuel in Maine as Winter Storm Fern bombarded the region.
The National Transportation Safety Board said investigators were at the site on Tuesday, with the full probe expected to begin on Wednesday.
