Calling NetJets a “prized asset in a very tough industry,” parent company Berkshire Hathaway credited the fractional ownership provider for helping boost the revenues of its service group by 11% year over year in 2025 to $23 billion. Berkshire Hathaway’s service group also includes FlightSafety International and other non-related businesses, but NetJets is its largest business in that portfolio.

In its recently released annual report, Berkshire Hathaway noted that revenue from aviation services was up by 9.9%, reflecting a 6.9% increase in aircraft in shared ownership programs as well as an 11.3% boost in the in-flight hours across NetJets programs. In addition, higher average rates contributed to the increase, Berkshire Hathaway also reported.
