You can make an online appointment too. If you are lucky https://passportappointment.travel.state.gov/
Make an appointment 17 days before your flight destination. Do it for early in the morning. Like 8:30 am.... Then you hve. High chance of revieving it later that day
You have to call the passport agency directly and because of COVID they are only accepting emergency appointments.
