Fetches one booking in full by the ref_no we generate, for example GAC-6A8C9DA2A683B. Same response as 09 Get booking by ID.

Useful when a customer quotes the reference from their confirmation email and you do not have our numeric id to hand.

Status	`error_code`	When
`200`	—	Found. `message` is `Successfully!`
`404`	`booking_not_found`	Unknown reference, or a booking that is not yours.
`401`	`unauthenticated`	Bearer token missing, invalid or expired.
`500`	`server_error`	Our fault.

Remember that ref_no changes if you replace the booking without echoing it back. Your own customer_reference is the more stable handle, so 11 Get booking by your reference is usually the better lookup to build against.
