Virgin America only flies domestic. Most of these restrictions will apply to the international flights to the US. (I guess the US doesn't really care about what happens outside, as long as everything coming in is checked)

It's probably that they have no way of doing so once the plane is foreign airspace. Lots of Americans are on the outbound flights so they care a great deal for the plane's safety.
