Editorial snapshot
Getting to Palau takes planning. Connections through Manila or Tokyo are the most reliable, and fares reward those who book eight to twelve weeks out. It suits the deliberate traveller more than the spontaneous weekend-breaker. Once you factor in the remoteness and the relatively thin airline schedule, the booking process is part of the adventure — and splitting the fare with BNPL makes the upfront cost far less daunting.

May through September is Palau's sweet spot: calmer seas, lower rainfall, and the best visibility for diving. December through February brings the wet season's peak, with heavier rain and choppier conditions around the Rock Islands. Fares spike in July-August and around New Year when demand from Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan surges sharply.
| Month | Price Band | Demand | Travel note |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | Peak | High | Wet season; New Year surge keeps fares elevated. |
| February | Mid | Medium | Rain easing; quieter but sea conditions still variable. |
| March | Mid | Medium | Transitional month; good diving visibility returning. |
| April | Budget | Low | Low season; best fares and fewer crowds at dive sites. |
| May | Budget | Low | Dry season begins; excellent conditions for snorkelling. |
| June | Mid | Medium | Demand builds; book early for best available fares. |
| July | Peak | High | Peak season; Japanese summer holidays drive demand up. |
| August | Peak | High | Highest fares of the year; book 10-12 weeks ahead. |
| September | Mid | Medium | Still excellent diving; demand softening after August peak. |
| October | Budget | Low | Shoulder season; good value with decent weather. |
| November | Budget | Low | Cheapest month to fly; wet season approaching. |
| December | Peak | High | Christmas and New Year push fares to annual highs. |

Roman Tmetuchl International Airport is Palau's only international gateway, a single compact terminal handling all arrivals and departures. Philippine Airlines and United Airlines are the primary carriers, with connections through Manila and Guam respectively. The terminal is small but functional — immigration queues move quickly for visa-on-arrival nationalities, and baggage claim is a short walk from the gate.
| Transport | Cost (approx) | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Taxi | USD 10-15 | 10-15 min to Koror |
| Hotel shuttle | Free or USD 5-10 | 15-20 min, pre-arranged |
