Doing this without macros is no drama and I would recommend you do this without the added steps of adding section breaks.

Put your cursor in the section AFTER the section break you want to delete. Go to the Page Setup dialog and on the Layout tab, change the Section Start to New Page. Then delete the section break.

You will discover that deleting the section break changes the Page Setup/Headers/Footers of the PRECEDING section since this is how Word works. If that is a problem for you, you need to copy your preferred headers/footers and page setup to the trailing section before deleting the section break.
