Private Aviation Giant Invests In Central Ohio Growth
NetJets, a Berkshire Hathaway-owned private aviation company, is expanding its global headquarters in Columbus, Ohio, with a multiyear project that includes two new buildings and a dedicated training center for its flight crews. The expansion will add approximately 800 employees to its Central Ohio workforce, bringing the total to roughly 3,200 by completion in early 2029. The investment aims to support rising demand from aircraft owners and accommodate future growth. NetJets has been investing in its fleet, expecting to take delivery of over 80 new jets in 2026, and has agreements in place for future purchases of Cessna Citation and Bombardier Challenger jets. The project has received support from local and state organizations, as reported by AeroTime.
