Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AuthenTrips at none against byAir's 10. AuthenTrips also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). byAir's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
