Does anyone know requirements for covid testing to fly within France (Nice to CDG airport?

I know, fully vaccinated, we only need a covid antigen test (cheaper and faster), to fly from CDG to the US. But, Air France web site is clear as mud on what if any test we need. I know domestic flights in France don't need testing, just pass sanitaire, however, It's not clear to me that if your next flight is international if it is considered a domestic flight. I know from CDG to US requires only the antigen test if you are fully vaccinated. Anyone know about the Nice to CDG flight?
Thanks in advance.
Sorry, poorly asked question. My real question is, does flying from Nice to CDG count as a domestic flight if you are then flying to the US. I know my US flight only requires an antigen test on Delta. I can't find info on going from Nice to CDG on Air France.

If you are checking in at Nice for a flight to CDG and then you will transfer at CDG to a US-bound flight, you will have to show proof of your negative test.

If you are flying from Nice to CDG and then spending some time in Paris (or elsewhere in France), you only need your proof of vaccination/ health pass.

It is not clear what it is you want to know. Your thread title asks about requirements for testing to fly within France, yet you state that you know domestic flights do not require testing. That is correct, there is no testing requirement for those already vaccinated to fly from NCE to CDG.

There is no French requirement for those vaccinated to depart France for the US. There is a US requirement that all air carrier passengers arriving in the US complete an antigen test within the 3 calendar days preceding their departure/arrival.

If you have time to complete the antigen test requirements in Paris, you will be able to complete the test there. If you are only connecting through CDG, you would logically need to have the test completed before departing NCE, simply because you will not have sufficient time to complete it at CDG.
