Can I switch from Delta Gold to Amex Gold?

American Express only allows upgrades to cards within the same card family. For example, you cannot upgrade from Delta Gold Card to a business card or co-branded card. If you upgrade to a American Express card with an annual fee, the charge will appear on the new card's first monthly statement.
