Hi

I have skied at Flaine as late as 25th April and there was snow, although it
was typical "spring skiing" ( hard in morning, good around midday and
"gloppy" in the afternoon).

There was still limited skiing at Chamonix until May bank holiday this year
(although I thought the lift prices were extortionate for what was
available).

Overall if you are going early April I think you should get some skiing -
check the local websites to see when lifts are scheduled to close.

Hope this helps

Andy
