using pour or pendant

Salut

The question was : Jeanne va en France ________.Jeanne is going to France for three days

The answer was "pendant trois jours," but the lessons says:
"These sentences all express future duration, with an intent, hence the use of pour" Why isn't the correct answer "pour trois jours"? merci

This question relates to:French lesson "Expressing for + [duration] in French with either pendant/durant/depuis/pour (French Prepositions of Time)"

Bonjour Laura,

I have checked and both 'pendant' and 'pour' should be accepted depending on whether you are emphasizing the duration or the intent so if this is not the case, please contact the helpdesk .

Bonne Continuation !
