Tour operator / charter flight licencing

A UK travel agent is chartering flights from an EU airline to take people on holiday to Finland and back in January 2019. Flights are every week - so the inbound pax are the previous week's outbound pax

I've asked the travel agent if I can buy a oneway ticket for one person from Finland to the UK but been told this is not possible because they aren't licenced to sell this ticket.

I realise travel agents want to sell full week packages not oneway flights and the travel agent might change their mind a few days before a flight.
However, could there be any truth in the "we are not licenced to do this" response or am I just being completely fobbed off ?
