PACKAGES

PackageID
PackageName
PackageCostpernight
PackageDetails

ROOMS

RoomID

etc...

GUESTS

GuestID
GuestName

etc....

AGENTS

AgentID
AgentName

etc...

RESERVATIONS

RoomID
PackageID
AgentID
GuestID
NumberOfDays

the ones in bold form a composite key so that one guest may pay for many rooms and packages e.g if they change or are paying for friends


? something like that?
