Been on 2 of each and I would have to say that the Radiance class ships are much more visually stunning. Other than apearance, you just have a more casual atmosphere on RCCL ships. If you prefer formality Celebrity is better. There is also more to do on RCCL ships with a minigolf course, rock climbing,etc. On the other hand the "M" class ships boast a real sushi bar with real sushi, not the crap they try to pass off as sushi in the Windajmmer each night. The "M"class also have the yummy Aqua Spa that has some really different stuff for breakfast and lunch.

Wow, tough call. My last two cruises were on the Infinity and Radiance, respectively.

 

I agree with the previous poster that the Radiance was more visually striking. Found the Infinity more sedate, less noisy, less crowded, however.

 

Flip a coin, you're a winner either way!!
