My passport was insanely expensive to get. I found out on a Monday that I was leaving for Tokyo on Saturday. I had to have my birth certificate next day airmailed to me (from my parent's house). The nearest place that could get an expedited passport was LA, so I had to book a plane for LA on the following day to get my passport and return later that evening. Found out that because of the flight scedules and the time I had to be there for the passport, had to rebook a plane for that same evening I got my birth certificate, stay the night in a hotel, then return the following day. Add to the expenses a rental car, meals, and parking for 24 hours at the airport (not sure if labor is counted as an expense)

I wish I kept a list of the expenses, it was ridiculous. This company will really throw money at something when it needs it done right away.
