Philippine Airlines (PAL) announced that it will begin twice-weekly flights between Manila and Palau (Koror) starting March 29, 2026. The new route expands PAL’s reach in the Pacific and gives travelers easier access to Palau’s well-known diving spots, lagoons, and coral reefs.
PAL president Richard Nuttall said the service is expected to boost tourism, especially among beach and diving enthusiasts, and will feature the airline’s signature Filipino hospitality.
To launch the route, PAL is offering introductory roundtrip fares starting at US$499 for economy and US$1,239 for business class. The promo runs until December 18 for travel from March 29 onward.
Flights from Manila will depart Wednesdays and Sundays at 10:15 PM, arriving in Koror at 2:00 AM. Return flights leave Koror Mondays and Thursdays at 3:10 AM, arriving in Manila at 4:55 AM. The route will use PAL’s 199-seat Airbus A321ceo.
The new service complements PAL’s Western Pacific route to Guam and supports the airline’s broader network, which includes nonstop flights from Manila, Cebu, Clark, and Davao to 31 domestic and 39 international destinations.
