How easy is it to travel to Palawan? Does it have an International Airport and what would be the transit time to resorts?

Back to the OP, yeah Boracay is getting overdeveloped and infested with tourists. I would love to visit as its probably the cheapest out of the other two, but I'd go for the other two if I had extra money to burn. It's one of those hidden gems that people don't know about...yet.

You just catch a flight from Manila (MNL). Yes, the international airport is Puerto Princesa (PPS). But the resort destinations like El Nido and Coron have their own airport. Not sure though how far the airport is from the resorts. I'm sure you can look that up.
