If you want to look for alternatives, you could look for flights out of Taipei to see if they are any cheaper overall (i.e.: adding the cost of the flight from Manila to Taipei, of an overnight stay in Taipei if it's required, of a visa for Taiwan if you need it...) and if, they were, if the price difference worths it. China Airlines and TransPacific Airways have flights from Taipei to Koror. From Manila to Taipei, Cebu Pacific could be a good option but take a look at the rest of options too. | 1
