Flight length difference from east coast?

Researching flights to Hawaii for next summer, I noticed what seems like a large difference in flight lengths leaving from either JFK (Hawaiian) or IAD (United). A sample of flights next June shows:

JFK-HNL on Hawaiian flight time of 12:30.
IAD-NHL on United flight time of 10:25.

I realize IAD is farther west than JFK, but a 2 hour difference seems like a lot. Is this correct?

Thank you!

Tony
