Traveling through France?

Question

I know this maybe a dum question but I really would apreciate any help! I have a friend (I know she is real)who is coming to the US from Russia and I found a good deal on tickets . But there is a connection in Paris. Does she need a speacial visa for France to connect on a flight from Moscow to Atlanta. There will be a four hour layover.

Answer 1

I don't believe she needs am airport tranist visa if she does not leave the secured area and has a valid US visa stamped in her passport.

Of course if the arrival and the departure take place in 2 different airports (Paris-Roissy and Paris-Orly), she needs a visa.
