Oh dear! Americans weigh down cruise ship 07dec04 DOZENS of seats on the world's most luxurious cruise liner have collapsed under the weight of obese American passengers. The chairs -- on the Queen Mary 2 -- are being replaced or repaired. The seating is mainly in the bar and restaurant areas. Alstom Chantiers, the French company that provided the liner with all its fixtures and fittings, claimed many of the chairs had buckled under the weight of larger passengers. "There are some things that need to be changed or replaced," said a spokesman. "For instance, there are some problems with the chairs because some of our passengers are heavier than we imagined. "It's not an English problem, it's probably more American." An unnamed former member of the ship's crew said: "We do have many large passengers on the QM2. Most of the passengers are American. "And we do have 10 restaurants on the ship, so if they are big when they get on, they tend to be bigger when they get off."
