Mobile Passports?

Now I know this is going to be a “how long is a piece of string” question! But I’d just like opinions please...
Cyprus booked 11 July according to jet 2 all still going ahead for now and balance due this Saturday.
However I’m still neeeding 2 passports renewing... all the offices are closed.
Do I cancel myself before this Saturday losing deposit
Or
Chance it that jet 2 cancel it and fully refund
Or risk it that passport office is open and we can get the passports in time?
If we cancel less than 70 days out can Jet 2 still take money off your card? As t&c’s state 30% loss.

We did an online application last week for a renewal. We sent back the old passport and had a text to say they received it today. Don’t know if this helps but just thought I would mention it.

Passport offices are still open for the processing of passports. It's only for online/postal applications. Not sure if you need a passport in an emergency how that would work though.

I’m not sure if passport offices are open or not? I applied for my son’s first passport online and they received his birth certificate on the 18th March and still not had the passport. It doesn’t matter now as our trip to DLP got cancelled but thought I’d mention it as they are definitely taking quite a bit longer than usual.

They are open but not fully staffed, we deal with them on some of their IT systems

i think they are increasing staffing levels on a weekly basis but not 100% sure but def open

Thanks for that! I’m not bothered at all as can’t see us going away for a while but need to make sure I don’t forget about it.

Passport arrived today, so applied on the 21st April, sent back old passport on that day. Photo was rejected online so we resubmitted it. Passport came on 1st May. Pretty quick service.
