If you're ultimate goal is to fly in Suites the easiest thing is to just transfer your Amex MRs to Krisflyer and leave them there until you're ready to book. They will expire after 36 months though so that's one thing to be aware of. Once the MRs are zeroed out you can cancel your card.

Is there some way to change the travel date to a later date for an additional fee? Or is it completely impossible to change a travel date past 1 year of the date of booking?

What i did was cancel entirely, and rebook. USD30 to redeposit miles. Miles will be credited back within the hour.
Best is to book any date you could find available, then change etc. If you can't fly within 1 year. You could cancel and rebook. Don't think SQ will devalue anytime soon as they have just did it March 23rd.
And of course fingers crossed that JFK will remain A388. I've got a Suites booking for next year that I'm pending on new Suites.

Just tell KF that you are looking to use the miles to rebook an immediate availability. They will get the permission necessary to redeposit the miles back asap
