[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1895528, member: 204485"] Sounds like a plan, as I wrote in another post when you come to downloading the Monterey installer check the "More Info..." on the same window in System update, it's blue writing. That will take you to a window with any updates you need to download first, Safari 15.1 is one that comes to mind. Big Sur may even reappear in the meantime. Apple has always removed the installer of the previous macOS on the App Store on release of a new one but they do come back again. Why that link takes you to Monterey and me to Big Sur is a bit of a mystery unless it's because I have already installed Monterey. This article indicates you can upgrade directly from Mojave to Monterey but your download may be larger because some of the components of Big Sur will be included; [URL unfurl="true"]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212735[/URL] It also describes the process in a step by step manner.
