So, I have to go to an ATT store before I am able to use my new phone?

No, you can do a backup of your 6 to icloud, then set up your X based off of the backup. You can do this all from home. It will be ready to set up when you receive it. After you're done, just do a factory reset on the 6 and give it to your dad. He may have to take it to a store to set up, but most likely he can just call AT&T to have it set up. You'll need the phone's IMEI number, and maybe the number on the sim card. It's been a couple of years since I set one up on AT&T, but every time I was able to call from another phone and set it up.
