No, not quite right. VG is in suborbital tourism business - their current technology allows only short hops to Karman line or so. To get to LEO one has to have a substantially more capable system, here SpaceX with its crewed Dragon would be front runner.
On the other hand, VG is much closer to starting offering suborbital rides than SpaceX is to starting offering interplanetary manned flights.
