Basically, on CA and MU narrow body planes, the bulkhead aisle seat on the left is typically reserved for a back-up flight attendant, while the other bulkhead aisle serves as the, for lack of a better word, pillow dispenser. I've had great success nabbing this fabulous seat on board (i.e. only questioned once on 50+ flights and still got it).
