How far is Washington football traveling for Rutgers game?

According to the Washington athletics site, the only FBS programs further east than Rutgers are UConn, UMass, Army, and Boston College. Conversely, Oregon, Oregon State, and Hawai'i are the only FBS programs further west than Washington.
According to Air Miles Calculator, 2,402 air miles separate Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and Newark Liberty International Airport. Doubling that number to account for a roundtrip, Washington will travel 4,804 miles to play its conference game vs. the Scarlet Knights on Friday.
In all, the Huskies will spend roughly 10 hours in the air flying to and from the game.,
