Alaska Airlines Hopeful Over Soviet Talks: Alaska Airlines executives say they are encouraged by a preliminary agreement that could lead to the first scheduled air service to the Soviet Far East by the summer of 1991. U.S. and Soviet negotiators meeting in London announced an agreement in principle to open commercial air service between Anchorage and the Soviet Far East cities of Magadan and Khabarovsk. If a final agreement is reached, Alaska Airlines hopes to offer two to three flights a week starting in 1991.
