T&T: Passport Service

[Leo Hill]

I'm leaving for a business trip to the UK tomorrow.  My passport expired in
May and obviously had to expedite the renewal process.

Atlas Visa Services - 1-800-242-VISA.

My company has an American Express travel office on-site at the corporate
tower.  I went to a quickie photo place at lunch, took the renewal
application (done on-line from a .gov address - google passport renewal for
the exact site) and 2 pictures to the travel office on my way home from work
on a Tuesday.  I received an email saying my passport was back the following
Tuesday.  Picked it up from the travel office on Wednesday.

Cost to the company?  Surprisingly little IMO - about $350 total - including
the standard government renewal fee.

YMMV and all that.
