Earlier today, Nigel Duncan, CEO of pioneering aircraft cabin lighting specialists, STG Aerospace, joined Arun Kashyap, Executive Vice President (Engineering) of Indian low-cost carrier, SpiceJet, to collect the Inflight Asia-Pacific Award in the Interior Retrofit Project category.

Mr Duncan commented: “We’re proud of our long-standing relationship with SpiceJet and equally delighted to have won this award with them. The contract is our first major retrofit win for liTeMood in the Asia-Pacific region and, as an existing saf-Tglo customer, SpiceJet have enabled us to demonstrate our total cabin lighting solution in this hugely important market.”
