Should you want to apply your Meta Pixel to all new events you create by default, you can set this up via Global Events Settings. See: Global Event Settings
Facebook has made some changes around how their pixel interacts with 3rd party domains. This change comes as a result of the iOS 14 update, where Apple's policy now prohibits certain data collection and sharing in accordance to their AppTrackingTransparency framework. As a result, you may find that the booking events on the pixel are displayed as "Hidden" within Facebook Business Manager.
We recommend using our Tracking Tags URL in your Facebook ad campaign to ensure you can still ascertain the value in bookings that the add generated. Google Analytics will allow you to track the "events" in the booking process.
