So we are going to travel a week from Saturday - everything might be ready by Thursday (6 days after passport)- but in case it's not we figured we should just make our reservations to be there the following week.

Re: Recent Passport timeframes...
I spoke with my agency and they said that they just removed the person that was issuing the passports in Guat. He was not very PRO ADOPTIONS and was sitting on the passport requests. Perhaps this will mean that a lot of people will start seeing their passports issued very soon. Keep posting when you get the calls that you have received your passports this will give the rest of us a better idea of what is really going on down there! Good luck to all!
