# FlightDeck vs MiniTravels

FlightDeck and MiniTravels both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of MiniTravels's written reviews are positive against 19% of FlightDeck's. MiniTravels also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ads (none vs shown). FlightDeck's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 2) and chart position (#29 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FlightDeck sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. MiniTravels asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for FlightDeck against 4.5 for MiniTravels. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FlightDeck has 1.5K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 19% of FlightDeck's written reviews are positive against 100% of MiniTravels's.
