Welcome to the RPC and FFXIV!
If you're not against putting real money down, choose a random server, create a few characters and then transfer them to whichever server you want for $18.00. And you can move as many of those characters you want for the same price.
Or if you're feeling lucky you can try jumping in rifht as the servers come back up from maintenance. Although you're probably looking at a 10 second window or less. I've known people who've been trying to getvto Balmung for over two minths trying it that way.
If you do decide to transfer, ignore the "Cannot transfer characters to a full server" limitation as it doesn't apply. You'll have nontrivial getting onto whichever server you'd like and its pretty much instant.
