Use a passport service

I wouldn't take any chances. Use a passport service to expedite service, given the wait right now. But be prepared to pony up between $50-100 per passport.

I got mine in two weeks --

I got mine in two weeks -- applied on June 15th and got it on June 29. What I did was pay expedited, and send it by overnight mail, paying for return overnight as well. Make sure you write "expedited" on the envelope and everywhere else.

We're off to the UK and Israel in September

You'll be fine if you apply by early next week and are renewing.

Yikes is right. We ordered

Yikes is right. We ordered ours for D and the girls in mid March. Just got two of them last week. One more is being expedited later today or tomorrow.... We leave in 13 days for Hungary.

Good luck! It's been taking

Good luck! It's been taking 10-12 weeks because of the backlog. It's even been a crap shoot for the expedited service. Any chance you can reschedule your trip?
