It might help people if you set out briefly what the changes you are referring to are, so that those not familiar, but interested (e.g. me) can follow discussion.
It would also help people respond to your question if you say which country you are referring to when you say 'nationwide' - you give no indication whatsoever!

The OP is asking about lighting (artificial illumination fixtures) rather than lightning...though it's not at all clear what the question is exactly.

Jetway lighting is typically linear T8 or T12 fluorescent lamps in either a recessed lensed 2x4 troffer or a surface mount 1x4 fixture. Although, there may be other variants.
I haven't heard of any specific program to upgrade these, but it is a pretty simple retrofit to replace the fluorescent lamps with LED T8 tubes, which might be what you have seen in some locations.

Plus with me, reading on smaller screens words like that often look the same if I read quickly...hate to admit it's time for reading glasses in my case!Jetway lighting is typically linear T8 or T12 fluorescent lamps in either a recessed lensed 2x4 troffer or a surface mount 1x4 fixture.

I have to say if there were suddenly bats hanging from the ceiling and snakes on the floor of a jetway, I'm not sure I would notice. I'm usually pretty oblivious at that point of the process.
LED changeovers would make sense, as that is happening more and more in general it seems.

Not nearly. I nominate the people who were maintaining a list of which way the baggage carousels revolve at every airport in the world. My favorite entry? "Unknown, broken and not revolving."
