Soldiers forced to pay for flights home?

Can anyone at Arsecot ops confirm this:

X was among a number of soldiers flown from Iraq to a base in Germany last year then told they would have to pay for the rest of the journey home because of a lack of seats on Army flights.
He had to telephone home to ask his parents to pay the £231 fare from Dusseldorf on a scheduled flight.
