I plan on flying out of Cincinnati/Northern KY Airport on a direct fight to Paris on 03Oct to see a concert on 05Oct. I then plan on flying home to Cincinnati, from Paris, on 06Oct. When should I begin the passport process to ensure I have it on time (I realize I may have to pay more at this point for quicker service), and what is the process?

Begin the process immediately. The summer is a very busy time at the passport office. The passport costs $100. You can speed up the process by paying an additional fee. It’s about an extra $100.
For more information, contact the nearest passport office to where you live. Their phone number is in your local phone book. You’ll need 2 identical ‘passport photos.’ Anybody who takes pictures professionally knows what that is.
We say just go ahead and get your passport… it can take several weeks, especially in summer… and you don’t want to be stressed, worrying about getting it in time for your trip.
