Before you finalize your booking, see if the rental agency offers free cancellation. This can be helpful if your travel plans change unexpectedly.

If you plan to have someone else drive, check if the rental company permits a second driver and whether there are extra fees involved. Some may offer free additional drivers under specific conditions.

Before you return the vehicle, clarify the return procedures with the rental agency. Knowing where to drop off the car and any required inspections can make the process easier.
