ticket booking

Securing travel passage

Ticket booking is the process of reserving or purchasing admission to an event, transportation, or venue in advance.

The term appears in contexts ranging from airline travel to concert venues: Online ticket booking has largely replaced box office queues.

In British usage, booking often stands alone where Americans would say reservation.
