Manchester is the closest airport and the best place to ski is Wildcat, right across the road from Pinkham. Wildcat stays open pretty late in the spring and has a fantastic view of The Ravine.

Attitash and Loon are other options. Loon generally is open longer than Attitash. Can't get any closer to Tucks than Wildcat however.

definitely manchester! not only is it fairly close (about a 2 hour drive, give or take depending on weather and how fast you drive), but it's a really nice and easy to use airport.

black mountain is 20 minutes south of tucks and they are awesome... and you'll pass cannon on your way to tucks going north on 93 (assuming you want to by pass the kanc and north conway, i'd recommend 93 personally). wildcat is some of the best spring skiing around though, can't beat the view either. with a half day ticket on sunday, you could ski tucks in the AM and wildcat in the PM if so inclined!
