Tricycles can technically make the 30km journey from the airport to General Luna, but the price is not standardized (expect ₱800–₱1,500 of negotiation), they're slow (65–80 minutes), uncomfortable for luggage, and exposed to the elements. Most travelers who try them regret it. For luggage-carrying airport transfers, stick to a shuttle or van.
