Depends. He can say it's urgent to speed up the process. Current waiting times are something between 3 and 6 weeks; but usually, they work as fast as they can. It also depends where he lives: From smaller villages, you lose at least a week for the transportation of the passport. In "before-biometric" times, I once had one issued within four days; but I made it urgent, and I lived in Berlin, where these things are produced. And I showed up with a flight reservation.
I'm quite sure he can get his biometric in passport in time; but doesn't he have a non-biometric one that hasn't yet expired? They are still valid. He doesn't need that biometric thing.

> He has a regular passport; but not a visa yet.
Well, then: No worries.
- The old passports are valid up to the expiry date that's imprinted in them.
- Germans don't need a visa for the US when they come as tourists.
Problem solved, nothing to do. He'll have to fill in a silly questionnaire on the plane, and that's all. (So far. They'll change the system to online applications soon, but haven't yet, afaik.) |

Hardly.
Takes some sort of 6 to 8 weeks, especially when holidays are ahead. |

Normal biometric passports need around 6-8 weeks, but there is a "fast track".
You have to pay more (I'm not exactly sure how much), but then the passport will be ready within 1 week. |
