Absolutely not!!
As Cedrus mentioned, you receive 6 'staff tickets' to use on the CSA network but they are about as useful as a concrete parachute.
They are basically ECO STBY with the incredibly slim chance to upgrade them to confirmed tickets IF you are lucky enough to book on a day when about 10 different factors all align and allow you to book a confirmed seat 😫
From what i heard, some other Chinese carriers do offer ID tickets. Shenzhen for 1 certainly used to. No idea if they still do.
HNA apparently do although that would need to be confirmed by someone on contract there.
CSA package is far inferior to others and the only real pull here is the RSP. However with all the RSP's full and all of them with waiting lists, some of the other carriers look much more appealing.
Recently somebody told me that HNA are looking at various new roster modes to attract more pilots. Apparently they want to get something close to a 2 week on 2 week off roster by operating guys to their chosen port on 1st and last day of duty. Interesting if comes true..........
