Micronesia/Palau which order???

Hi All,
I have a few questions. We are booked to go to micronesia including palau in august. From what i understand the continental micronesia island hopping ticket includes Palau (ROR) but i want to be certain?
My next questions if we have chose a good choice of islands and which order is best to do them, does continental stop at each one or are there direct flights, for example can i fly from gaum direct to kosarae and then go back to yap and then palau and back to gaum? or alternatively what would be a better order?
We plan to do the following
1. palau 4 night live aboard
2. yap 4 or 5 nights
3. kosarae 4 nights (was not sure if to go to phonepei instead but kosarae sounds more gorgeous any opinions?????)
MANY THANKS for any help and advice you can offer.
thanks
:)

I am pretty sure if you do the island-hopper route, you must travel in one direction, taking in the islands in order of Continental stopping at them. Continental would lose a fortune by taking you from Guam way out east to Kosrae, then back west via Guam to Yap.
The island-hopping route does include Palau, but you may have to pay extra to add it on.

continental micronesia flies from west from Hawaii. First two stops on the Marshall islands then three stops in micronesia. Kosrae is the first and an absolute must see. I went there last september, it is great.
Via Ponpei and chuuck you get to guam and from guam you can go to Palau. From Guam to palau is a direct fight and back to guam it stops on Yap. So going to Yap means flying via Palau. I got a ticket starting in Hawaii and flying all the way to tokyo. The best price you get is if you include it in a round the world ticket. Buying the tickets seperate is very expensive.

have fun
