Hi paddy,
i feel " (2) do you have a ticket?" is correct.
i don't think (1) is acceptable grammaticaly though people frequently use it.
my suggestion is always use (2).

Grammaticaly, number two is more acceptable, but I am sure British English accepts the first one, at least in spoken form:
Have you a dog?
yes, I have.
Have you a pen?
No, I haven't.
Have you a dog?

Have you a pen?
No, I haven't.
