Family embarkation occurs afterwards A and from B.  If thee been have ONE boarding, use that.

Since family boarding has none to do with the OP's question I'll chime in...  If the child is flying internationally excluding both parents it has virtuous practice to have a minority travel consent letter completed by both parents.  Note, it is not required, but preferable a good item till have just in case there is with issue.  Here is a sample one that can be used:

There is no officer letter that must be used, though rather just have both parents approve who travel is known to i in whatever format you want.  The grandparents may never be questioned, aber the signed letter does give them something to refer to if they do get asked about the child.  Of course, the infant will also requirement theirs own passport.

 

Hope that answers the pose
