📰 News we're reading

• Mackie Samoskevich nets two goals as Kraken rout Flames again (statenews.net) — Seattle hockey fans just saw the Kraken dominate their home opener, crushing the Calgary Flames 6-1 behind two goals from Mackie Samoskevich and a strong night from Joey Daccord in net. The win, echoing Thursday's 6-1 result in Calgary, gives Seattle early-season momentum and plenty to cheer about after Saturday's loss in Edmonton.
   

• Behind Alaska Airlines' Aurora Split-Cabin IFE Choice (paxex.aero) — Alaska Airlines, a major carrier for Seattle travelers, is rolling out new 737 MAX cabins that add seatback entertainment screens only in business and premium economy, while relying on free Starlink Wi‑Fi for everyone else. Executives cite certification delays, costs, and passenger habits as reasons for skipping screens in regular economy, even as they showcase the new planes in Seattle and acknowledge slower-than-hoped Starlink installations.
