As for your itinerary, are you sure you don't want to go to Boracay? I wouldn't miss it if I were you. Sagada is way too far. Will take you about 7 hours or more. I don't think there's an airline that goes to that area.

You can probably do 3 days in Palawan, 2 days in Bohol, 2 days in Boracay and 2 days in Manila.

You can check the ff airlines:

Hope this helps. Don't hesitate to message me or reply if you need more info/help.

Hey Essentialgal,

thanks for the hotel suggestions but unfortunately they are way out of my budget range. I really do appreciate your help very much. I was able to find a vacation condo for rent in Makati that is perfect for my budget and the place is less than a year old. If anyone is interested, I found it on Trip Advisor.

Boracay from what I've heard is mostly beautiful white beach's, not really into the beach thing but Palawan (underground river) and Bohol (Chocolate Hills) are definitely in and Sagada will be out as I looked up what it takes to do and way too hard for the short time I'm out there.
