I have a Barclays Wyndham Rewards card (the no annual fee version) and a Citi AA card. The plan was to cancel the Citi AA card right before the annual fee is due (sometime in March 2018) and get this one for the sign-up bonus.
I have no use for the Wyndham card, I only signed up because it was free and gave me the free night. I have Marriott and IHG cards as well, and will just ride those going forward.
I have also signed up for six credit cards between February and July 2017, and I'd rather not do a separate signup for the Barclays AA one, if possible.
There is no "this one" Aviator card. There are up to
4 versions of the Aviator card. If you can product change to one at all, I would expect it would be to the no-AF "white" Aviator card (which earns miles but has hardly any benefits), given that you'd be converting from a non AF WyndhamRewards card.
Banks don't typically let you product convert from a no-AF card to a card with an AF. Of course, at lots of banks they also don't let you product convert from one partner card to a card for another partner, but whether this is the case at Barclay I don't know.
Since most people have no interest in product changing to this card, you could be waiting a long time to see if anyone reports ever having tried it, or you could just call up Barclay and ask them what you can product change your card to. The first question is, how long have you had it? Some banks don't let you product change a card until you've had for a year. But even if you can, the answer will likely be different depending on which card you're product changing
from.
