Aer Lingus will outfit its planes with mood lighting, developed in partnership with Cobalt Aerospace. So far, the airline added the technology to 25 of its planes with plans to retrofit the remainder during their standard maintenance checks.

The airline said the lighting “features settings to fit the Aer Lingus brand,” including shades from “strong blue to dim lavender.” The lighting is designed “to provide a versatile cabin interior which can adapt to deliver ambient and functional lighting settings to fit each phase of each journey.”

Mike Rutter, chief operating officer, Aer Lingus, said, “We are delighted to unveil the new LED mood lighting system which will further enhance the Aer Lingus guest in-flight experience. In recent years, we’ve invested significantly in our business, including the launch of a refreshed brand in January of this year to improve our value proposition, the overall guest experience and become Ireland’s only four star airline.

“Innovations we have introduced include the roll-out of WiFi on our A330s, automated check-in and bag drop at Dublin Airport, Business Class improvement with fully lie-flat beds and economy catering upgrades. The introduction of this mood lighting system is the latest initiative to improve our guests’ comfort on-board.”
