I don't know what the rules regarding the issuing of passports to British citizens are, but back in 1990 I got my U.S. passport on the same day I applied. I just showed up at the State Department office in Rockefeller Center with my airplane tickets and filled out an application. It took about an hour.

But even this "unnamed source" confirmed that they were planning to do a dry run in a couple of days -- so they either did have the passports, or would be able to get them in a day, as you suggested.

You make it sound so easy, but the reality is that to get a one day passport, you need to meet quite criteria in both identification and need.
