Waitlisted for CGK-NRT-SFO

I'm planning to go home to Jakarta on December by redeeming my Diamond miles. It says that the status of the flight from SFO-NRT-CGK is OK but the return flight (planning to return on 1/4/2018) is waitlisted. What are the chances that a seat opens up? I am a Diamond member so I think that my WL is prioritized? But I'm not sure

I would imagine the flight from Jakarta to Narita could be quite tricky. The date is part of the return rush after new year's holiday in Japan. I would expect flights to Japan to already be quite packed.

2018.1.4 NH836 CGKNRT 0625 1545 (J award available/ Y waiting)
2018.1.4 NH872 CGKHND 0725 1630 (J OK/ Y waiting)
2018.1.4 NH856 CGKHND 2145 0650+1 (J waiting/Y OK)

So, CGKTYO segment can be bookable as a Diamond.

Unfortunately, TYO to west coast (SFO,LAX,YVR) has no availability at all.
It's Japanese new year holiday seasn.

Interesting that it is the ex Japan flight that is full.

I actually live in Seattle but CGK-NRT-SEA is also full What are the chances of getting the WL cleared? And when is it probably going to clear? I've read in several threads that the limit is 14 days before the departure of the outbound flight
