# OnlyFlights vs Days Away

The clearest difference is rating: Days Away at 5.0 against OnlyFlights's 4.3. Days Away also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 74%) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 10 days). OnlyFlights's advantage is ratings volume (23 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. OnlyFlights sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Days Away sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Days Away holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OnlyFlights has 23 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 74% of OnlyFlights's written reviews are positive against 100% of Days Away's.

OnlyFlights ships an update every 10 days, Days Away every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
