Question Waitlist chances?

Hi there!

I booked a flight via AsiaMiles (SFO>HKG>MLE) and upon booking was told I'm waitlisted for the flight. From talking to a Cathay Pacific representative, I understand this means they're waiting for more people to book the route before confirming the flight. The confirmation page also says the following: "Our records indicate that you have not issued a ticket for this booking. Please contact Asia Miles Service Hotline to issue the ticket before 06:00, 10 Apr (SFO time). Otherwise your booking will be invalid and will automatically be cancelled without further notice."

Anyone have experience with this? I'm wondering what the likelihood is that I'll get the flight, and whether there's anything I can do but wait?

Thanks, appreciate any advice or explanation of what usually happens in cases like this!

Itinerary is:
20 Apr 2018, Fri CX873 SFO > HKG
21 Apr 2018, Sat CX601 HKG > MLE
28 Apr 2018, Sat CX602 MLE > HKG
30 Apr 2018, Mon CX872 HKG > SFO
