My goodness, can you imagine the unmitigated chaos that would result if that really were the rule? And can you imagine the immigration staff at CDG checking Flight Aware (or something) for delayed push-backs? So, as I said, this is the humorous side of things.

Next, they should get rid of that equally silly Green/Orange/Red attestation form that you have to download from the French Embassy's website. Nobody looks at it, not even Verifly (AA's outside docs review contractor).
