Do you need a Schengen visa for a transit flight to Havana through Paris?

Responds Violetta Yakushenko, Russian Express company
If you do not go into the city, then a transit visa is not required.
Answer information Department of "Subtlety of Tourism"
In this case, you will not need a Schengen visa. The flight by Air France-Moscow-Paris-Havana provides for docking at the French airport Charles de Gaulle. If docking lasts no more than 24 hours, then a transit visa is not needed. However, with this option, you will not be allowed to leave the transit zone of the airport.

If a passenger from Moscow arrives at Charles de Gaulle airport and from there he needs to transfer to Orly airport for a flight to, say, Casablanca, transit a visa is required. And it does not matter how much time it will take in Paris - more than a day or a couple of hours.
