Channel Islanders can pursue opportunities overseas thanks to the latest round of free flights being offered by Blue Islands.
The flight funding programme was launched in 2019.
Rob Veron, CEO Blue Islands said: "From sport, charities, art and personal enrichment, there was an incredible range of aspirations showcased in a record number of applications which is testament to the amazing talent, dedication and passion of Channel Islanders.
"This latest round of flight funding sees 300 free flights worth over £25,000 awarded.
Jersey snooker player Archie Greier, 10, was one person to benefit.
After winning the U21 Bronze championship in Swindon in May, and learning that he has become a flight fund beneficiary, Archie said: "I'm so happy that I finished off the snooker season with a victory.
"I've won three Cuestars tournaments now and hoping to win more when it starts again in September. I now move up to Silver level having been Bronze level for just over a year, and with flight funding support from Blue Islands, I can enter many more events and hopefully get more experience and bring back more trophies to Jersey."
