I just went thru the process to get my first passport. Called, made appt for following week, spent half a day in the agency downtown (didn't need to show travel plans, did pay 60 buck expedite fee. picked up the passport at the agency with appointment and 10 minute wait two days later. My understanding is the SD agency is unique in that you don't need to be traveling within 2 weeks to expedite matters, just pony up the bucks. Tip: try to get the first AM appointment and show up a little early. The guard told me someone did that the day I was there and walked out with their passport 2 hrs later.
