Can anyone speak to how comfortable the Virgin business class seats are? It seems like the leg rest does not come up very high, which is my biggest concern, but perhaps I could put a pillow on it to prop my leg up a little higher.

This photo of Branson in the seat makes the seat look pretty small and awkward! But maybe he's just really tall? I'm just 5'7".

I can't find any seats that will work for me to EWR, so the EWR Amtrak connection is moot for me personally (though a pertinent issue for lots of travelers, I'm sure!)
