Meanwhile, there are TGVs departing CDG for Lyon at 12:54 (arriving 3:01) and 1:54 (arriving 4:01), so train seems like a better plan.

Questions:
- Probably can't make the 12:54, right?
Right !
- If my flight is delayed, can I use my TGV ticket on a subsequent train?
depends on your fare
Can I collect miles for the TGV (I'm a Skymiles member, not FB)?
only if booked as part of your airline ticket
Anything else to know about the AF/TGV transfer?
In your case, fly from CDG to LYS.
