WiFi calling
With a few more Intl overnights popping up does anyone have any experience with using the WiFi calling function on your cell phones from a hotel WiFi Intl? Is this free like using it domestic or are you getting charged Intl/roaming rates?

I fly internationally. I have an iphone 8. Before I leave the states, I turn off the cellular data and put the phone into airplane mode with the wifi turned on. I have the wifi calling enabled. Ive never been charged for making or taking a call. You just need a good wifi signal.

Just make sure your Wifi calling is selected on via the settings in your phone. Your phone will switch between Wifi or LTE and you may not even noticed it. I find this happens when there's a poor connection such as some hotel rooms.
