Where are the MAX 8'S?

Has anyone spotted any MAX8's in the schedule as of June 6 or beyond?  I've checked quite a few routes from DEN and elsewhere, but, alas, haven't seen any.  Should be quite a few in service by now.

Yes, there are a number of them flying now.  Routes are not set, so keep an eye out.  You can also use apps such as FlightRadar to see current Max 8 flights in air.

The max flights look to go to a larger schedule next week. In this first phase they had about 30 flights a day but next week that goes up (unless the electrical issue grounds them a week or 2)

Thanks for the ideas, people, but the 6000 series flight numbers that marked the first MAX's in March appear to be gone and I have yet to see a MAX designation on a June + dated flight.  Maybe Southwest will simply dub them over some of the 737-800 designated trips, but it doesn't sound like anyone else has seen any either.

You might want to look at posts near the end of another thread for ideas.
