True, but neither have seen any sea-going service since the late 1960's and are extremely unlikely ever to do so in the future. OTOH, SS France saw 23 years of service as SS Norway from 1980 onward.

And don't forget the two Italia ships which only saw 10-years of service. Of the four, QM and Norway were of course the most successful w/the ssUS a distant 3rd. The twin Italia ships were a failure from the beginning.
