Booking Calendar Data Presentation

Question

I am developing a booking calendar and I want to represent the availability of cabins by time slots as below.

And display a combined "availability" view of all the cabins as below:

What would be the best table structure in order to represent this requirement. and how can I query the database to get my final overall availability screen? Can i get the intended output in one query?

Or any proposals to represent the overall availability of cabins in a better way than above is most welcome.

Your suggestions are much appreciated.

Answer 1

A simple structure might be as follows:

cabins
(cabin_id*
,cabin_name)

bookings
(booking_id*
,cabin_id
,from_datetime
,to_datetime)

* = (component of) PRIMARY KEY
