You can’t go from an airline card to a hotel card or whatever.
See if they have a $0 annual fee version of your card

I’d transfer to Air Canada and book Singapore Biz and Emirates F seats.
Will also transfer to LifeMiles (Avianca) as they have lots of Star Alliance partners.
They have no fuel surcharges and tend to cost fewer miles for the same flights on Air Canada/ United.
Avianca Lifemiles is also good for UK/EU flights.

I just tried this week (impatiently waiting to fall back under 5/24) and received my first instant rejection.

The same thing happened to me based on the revenue I reported.
Chase raised the limit after two billing cycles without me asking.
Mine went from $4,000 to $8,000.

I’m pretty sure someone has posted about this elsewhere, but you can circumvent the interview wait time by taking an international trip and coming back through airports that offer interviews to arriving passengers.
My conditional was really fast.
My husband and I went to Portugal and came back to Boston.
As we were waiting to process back in through customs, I saw a line with 10 or so people off to the side and heard folks talking about the GE interviews.
I asked and they said just to ask to get in that line.
I had my interview done in under a half hour.
There are multiple airports where you can have an immediate, unscheduled interview when you are arriving back in the States.
Don’t forget to have your conditional approval available on your phone – took me a hot minute to pull that up.
This is USCBP’s website describing this – it’s an actual thing:
