Is it permissible to benefit from a free airline ticket provided by a friend who works at the airline company, and what should I do if it has already been booked?

If your friend obtained the ticket through permissible means (such as a gift from the airline), without lying, bribery, or fraud, then there is no harm in you accepting it from him. However, if he would obtain it through unlawful means, then do not accept it.
