I'm very strongly against people leaving contracts early, but you've stated the mitigating circumstances and instead of dropping the customer in it you've discussed it with him/her in a grown up manner.
That's a massive difference to the so called contractors who will bin a contract with no notice just for a few quid a day.
Odds are they want the number of weeks as it will take them a bit of time to get someone in and they want to maintain some pace on the project, they clearly feel you're adding some value. As an interim step you might try pointing out that the out of country travel is a big part of the problem and you can stay a bit longer if that's cut back.
I would advise you to NOT even mention compensating the agency, if you agree a mutually acceptable date with the client you can justifiably tell the agent to bog off.
