ZYR-CDG is not TGV-Air. This is a different product. It replaces a defunct air link between CDG and BRU, with dedicated 1st class carriage and is called Air & Rail.

TGV-Air is a mix of TGV segment (with AF flight number) from or to cities around France mixed with a flight to or from CDG.

Other airlines offer this product as well.

I know it is confusing, hence my warning which you did not catch.
