I'm debating renewal vs trying to get a couple trips done with less than 6 months remaining on mine. 2 weeks would be acceptable.
With a business trip pending, there is NO WAY I would trust the US government.
I would definately have used a passport expiditing service in this case (with proof of immediate flights pending).
Even in the days when the government was not so backlogged, I was traveling to Bermuda weekly and once when I had a one week gap .. I used a service and got it back very quickly!
