How flexible are monthly car rental contracts if my travel plans change? Can I extend or end early without big penalties?

Flexibility varies by company and should be negotiated upfront. Most monthly rentals require 30-day minimum commitment. Extensions are usually easy - just notify them before contract end (typically 7-15 days notice) and they continue monthly billing at same rate. Early termination is trickier - some companies charge penalty equivalent to remaining days/weeks, others just require 7-day notice. When I rented from Octane Rent, contract specified I could end anytime with 15 days notice, no penalty after first month. That flexibility was valuable since my project timeline was uncertain. Read about contract terms at https://www.reddit.com/r/traveladvice/comments/1qki8aw/best_corporate_car_rental_in_dubai_for_long/ from others' experiences. Get extension and termination terms in writing before signing. For uncertain stays, month-to-month renewable might cost slightly more than committing to 3 months upfront, but gives you flexibility. Ask about pro-rated refunds if you leave mid-month - policies vary.
