OLCI Full at T-13, should I expect to fly?

I'm flying bkk-ist-jfk (TK69 - TK0003) tonight and olci showed full and won't even show me seat selection for TK0003.

The question is: should I expect to fly tonight and what can I do to maximize my chances of getting a seat, aside from getting to the bkk tk desk super early?

TIA!


UPDATE: everything (so far, I'm writing this from the gate at bkk) worked out just fine. OLCI allowed me to check in at the same time the actual TK counter opened, even got my customary aisle seats! Thanks everyone for the encouragement.

I'm quite certain that you will get a seat. Just because no seats are available for OLCI doesn't mean that all seats are taken - seats will often be blocked and only allocated at airport. Expect to travel as booked!
