Since nobody else answered "Southwest" or "American" or "FedEx" or "Alaskan" or "JetBlue" or "UPS" or "Hawaiian" or any other carrier for that matter, a reasonable person would reach the conclusion that those other carriers do not in fact offer full bennies from Day One.
So how about
you please name the carriers that DO offer bennies from Day One, as originally requested. We already know United and Delta.
If you can in fact name the other carriers, and they indeed are the majority, then I would be happy to change my stance on the subject. But until proven otherwise, while Delta and United are indeed large carriers, if it's just the two of them I'd hardly consider it "industry standard".
