All the locations you name are in the Northern Hemisphere -- closer to the North Pole than to the South Pole.
Judging by longitude, Alaska is further west. If it were any further west, it would start to cross the 180 degree line. However, if you flew to Alaska or Hawaii from California, you'd have to go much further west to get to Hawaii. This anamoly is because the world is round and Hawaii is much further south than Alaska, which is almost at the North Pole.
