1) Flying AF268 MLE-CDG and it says that there is a stop at CMB on the way, would this be a full layover where we depart the plane, or would we stay seated on the plane during the stop?
2) There will be an overnight layover in CDG before continuing on to FRA and then DTW... would AF keep my checked luggage during the overnight layover, or will we need to retrieve it since we will have to go through immigration coming from a non-Schengen country?

Thanks in advance!
I've done this flight. You stay on at CMB.

I did not check baggage but my friend who I was traveling with did, and we had to collect her bags at the baggage carousel upon arrival at CDG even though we had a connecting flight to SFO in the morning on the same ticket.
