Sounds like an original TIR-VIE-EWR itinary got screwed due to OS cancelling the first segment and rebooked to TIR-MUC-LHR-EWR, but since GB doesn't have airside transit in T2 the passport validity became an issue. LH solved it by rebooking to MUC-EWR direct the next day, so the trip was significantly delayed.

Tricky one. Usually the traveler is responsible for their paperwork to be in order, but if the only alternative that day is to transit in LHR who has tricky DATV rules?
