Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Rocketmiles at none against Trip.com's shown. Rocketmiles also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (55% vs 41%). Trip.com's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and chart position (#25 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
