I just found 3 “managed” WiFi networks that I can’t get rid of for some reason and I do not have a clue where they came from! How do I get rid of them? Also I have another question/problem I will be asking about after I get this question out there and hopefully figured out soon, PLEASE!!! 🙏🏼 How do I get rid of those networks???

The managed WiFi networks are provided by your cellular carrier. Remove your SIM card and they will go away. They are used by your cellular provider to be able to use WiFi on partnered providers when Cellular service is not available. Every major cellular provider that I am aware of has at least one managed WiFi network. You cannot manually remove them.
T-Mobile partners with Alaska Airlines to provide inflight WiFi to T-Mobile customers and that is what they use that managed WiFi network for. Verizon has 3 of them for various services that they offer. AT&T has "AT&T Wi-FI Passpoint" and "attwifi".

I appreciate you responding so quickly and so clearly!! So I have nothing to worry about? I cannot remove my SIM card(SIM card(s) are a whole new issue in itself!), Again I appreciate your feedback tremendously 🙏🏼
Nothing to worry about, everyone has them and it does not mean your device is being managed at all.
How can I remove mysterious 'managed' WiFi networks from iPhone?
