The Department of State is currently stating the routine service can take up to 8 weeks (up from the normal 6 weeks). Don't put applying for a passport off! Our personal advice is to save money and avoid stress by applying at least 2 months before your trip.

Why should you apply for your passport several months before your trip when routine processing takes around 8 weeks? Problems with your application, increased demand, and even inclement weather can cause delays. Don’t risk cancelling or delaying your trip! http://ow.ly/nWIW50xjRCL
