AT&T customers who have newer iPhones can now make WiFi calls when traveling abroad. The company enabled international WiFi calling with the iOS 9.3 update from Apple and refreshed carrier settings. AT&T says international calls made via WiFi will be charged at its standard rates. The feature also allows people to send text messages via WiFi, which are counted the same as regular text messages. WiFi calling, which must be turned on in the system settings, is available to the iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, and 6s Plus. WiFi calling has been available for domestic calls since last year and can provide voice/messaging connectivity in areas with poor cellular coverage.

Iphone SE?

The article mentions the 6(s)(+) line of iphones but not the new SE, is that a deliberate omission?
I would suppose that since the iPhone 6SE is not available for immediate purchase today, it was not included in the list for the update. WiFi calling will probably be available at launch for the iPhone 6SE.
