Your cell-data should have a property IsBooked, then in the DataGrid.CellStyle you can use a data-trigger on IsBooked to change its backgroud. (There are some other alternatives besides DataTriggers, but if you just have one boolean conditional i find them to be quite convenient.)

change background of specific cell by code :

   DataGridRow firstRow = dataGrid1.ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromItem(dataGrid1.Items[0]) as DataGridRow;
   DataGridCell firstColumnInFirstRow = dataGrid1.Columns[0].GetCellContent(firstRow).Parent as DataGridCell;
   //set background
   firstColumnInFirstRow.Background = Brushes.Red;
