Welcome to FT!

I received mine last September in a week and a half. I have also read posts of others receiving them in about the same time frame. Below is a link to a long thread on this topic. There are many others as well that you can find by using the search function.

If your trip is the end of July, it is going to be tight. You also face the risk of the ticket prices increasing the longer you wait to book your flights. You may end up negating any savings from the cert due to the higher fare classes as you approach the flight date.
