I'm trying to log onto my Apple ID currently on a new phone but it requires a two factor authentication verification that gets sent to a old phone number that I no longer have access to.
Is there any way for me to disable the two factor authentication or allow me to gain access to the account and set it up using a new phone number?

“Whenever you sign in with your Apple ID on a new device or browser, you'll confirm your identity with your password plus a six-digit verification code. There are a few ways you can get a verification code. You can use the code displayed on your trusted device, get a text or phone call, or generate a code from your trusted device [see the additional information in the article].” A trusted device is an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch with iOS 9 and later or a Mac with OS X El Capitan and later that you've already signed into using two-factor authentication.
“If you can’t sign in, reset your password, or receive verification codes, you can request account recovery to regain access to your account. This link takes you to:

Account recovery might take a few days or longer, depending on the specific account information you can provide to verify your identity. After you request account recovery, you'll get an email with a confirmation of your request and the date and time of when you can expect to regain access. … When the wait period is over, Apple sends you a text or automated phone call with instructions to regain access to your account. Follow the instructions in the above link to immediately regain access to your Apple ID.

The code does not come to your telephone number. By default it is sent simultaneously to all your AppleID trusted devices by encrypted iCloud notification.
Do you have another trusted device linked to your AppleID (iPad, iPod Touch, Mac) to get the code? Did you register a backup SMS or voice telephone number to get a code?

Nope, no other trusted device linked to that AppleID. Everything is tied to old number that I no longer have access to, so sending SMS text doesn't work for me.
Sorry, but then you’re only option is to use the slow and lengthy account recovery process.
