Should I ask for a credit line increase?

Credit

Hi! I'm 24, fully employed with a job that pays $45k a year. I currently have a credit card that I use as a debit card. I put all my expenses on it and then pay it off in full every month. This is my only credit card. I've had it since 2014. It originally had a $700 that was increased automatically to $1700 in 2011.

The limit on the card is $1700. I was looking into other credit cards recently, as I'm interested in cards with travel rewards. Most of them wanted to see credit history with cards with higher credit limits. Should I request an increase in my credit line?
