I asked this in another thread and never got an answer. I have a trip from ORD-HNL-ORD this fall (so certainly crew rest needed), and the seat map currently shows 1AB available--in both directions. Matter of fact, only one seat is pre-selected on either flight, and it's a row 3 window.

It's been this way constantly since I started looking at the flight about 6 weeks ago.

Am I safe picking that seat pair, or is it just coded wrong this far in advance, or are there some sort of crew bunks that they're planning on installing in the next six months?
