Stopping in Rockford IL before coming to Phoenix?

Does anyone know whether the recent iPhone ordered from verizon comes with physical SIM card or eSIM? Is it possible to get the iPhone 13 from Verizon and switch to eSIM at the same time?

I am using a 4G physical SIM in iPhone XR and I am curious about how I should activate my iPhone 13 on Friday. Swapping my existing SIM to 13? Transfer from physical SIM to eSIM? A new physical SIM?
 

In the following article, Apple details the steps to transfer a physical SIM in the old iPhone to eSIM in the new iPhone:​


Transfer a SIM from your previous iPhone to eSIM on your new iPhone​



But it also says the carrier needs to support this feature. Does Verizon support it?
 
Both my package has been delayed, guess I won't see my new phone till Monday. Also showing check back tomorrow for an update for delivery date

My phone made it to the sorting facility 30 miles away at about 5am. Hoping it arrives before lunch like it did last year!
 
Anyone else look at the orders and it says “Order is on hold”. Need to accept terms and conditions?
I have and when I do it again it says I already accepted the terms and conditions, that I did do two nights ago when I ordered.
Is this Verizon’s poor web stuff not catching up or should I call them, I did chat with someone after the order and they said everything was good..

thanks.
 
So I got a shipping notification today for my 13 PM 1TB Graphite (originally quoted 10/1 even though I ordered first thing when it dropped) and those fools shipped it out UPS Ground when I was originally quoted 2 day. I contacted then through chat as phone support is not open yet. They said they‘d fix it but I don’t know what to expect. The label was only created so far.
 
I have a Pro and Pro Max on the way to Cleveland in separate packages; the Pro seems to be in town directly from PA already, where the Pro Max is showing the Louisville delay.
My tracking updated, with the delayed unit having arrived in Cleveland an hour ago (two hours behind the other one).

Woke up to the same thing this morning. What a bummer. It made it to my city, then departed again.

My phone has made it to NC. Only a few hours away. Happy iPhone day everyone. Best of luck that driver doesn’t take forever to drop of the new baby!
