Well, as SoutheLily has said, it all depends on the context, like when we're "ordering" a book online, we usually use the verb "order" and not "book"; in your case, "to order (for) your ticket(s)" is quite a common use.
(Hope someone would come up with clearer explanations.)
Btw, are there any differences between these two sentences?
1) I've ordered a yacht last Friday.
2) I've booked a yacht last Friday.
And, between these two Chinese terms?
1) 定購
2) (預)訂
