Going to the UK to visit friends on 23 August and my passport expires on the 19th. Sending off my p application today so hoping it will be back in time. Has anyone applied for a passport recently and how long is it taking now ?
 
Not in the case of Ryanair. Read your airlines terms and conditions.
 
If travelling with Aer Lingus, your Driving Licence (or other photographic identification) will suffice. Similarly, if travelling by boat.
 
Mine took about a month (I tracked it online) - I sent it at the beginning of June 2010
 
While it states Irish citizens don't require a passport for travel to the UK - how do you prove your citizenship without having the passport/driving licence seeing as all flights put through immigration at Dublin airport
 
You even need a passport/ID to travel exit the airport even from internal flights, which is pure madness.
