How you can get now a Lifetime pass, once you have the game? I bought it including Horizons but I didn't read anything about it. Only here I heard about it.

See you in the Dark

It has not been offered since 2015 I believe - that's when I bought mine (August 2015). (Since I paid £120 for it and only got the one expansion - Horizons - it has not exactly been a bargain. Not complaining though, the game is well worth whatever I throw at it plus I get to bask in my Cobra MklIV. :))

I only have the 'Elite Dangerous - Alpha - Elite Dangerous Alpha Demo' in my account pretty sure that includes the LEP as I got Horizons gratis.

I paid £275 for the Alpha, I'm backer number 1,5## on KS - I had even pledged an extra £75 to get them over the kickstarter line as it was looking touch and go at the time. I expect free games & updates till their servers go cold for that. Don't ask about my Star Citizen investment, at least ED looks like it will be on par with what SC promised with this new release.

Sadly I hardly play ED due to the grindiness and it's boring TBH. But Odyssey looks like it might be worth logging in again so feeling the excitement again as I did in 2013. I recall the Alpha demo and in a lot of ways it was a lot more fun than the game now. It wasn't fighters in space, there was inertia and better physics and stealth. I miss that Alpha game.

Still no info. I also have a lifetime pass (KS), but i still don't have Odyssey anywhere. We will see if it will work on Monday.

No. LEP was something you bought as an extra when it was offered. Some people paid a lot for an LEP, others not as the price fluctuated for a while. LEP is nothing to do with premium beta, that was something completely different based on your Kickstarter pledge. More you put in, the better the benefits

Incorrect, LEP is included in Premium beta purchase.

I was also premium beta with the Premium Boxed edition. Date I signed up was Jan 2013, checking the kickstarter page from archive.org reads;

Code: 
The £80 pledge tier and higher now also includes free expansions for Elite: Dangerous! For more information
on likely expansions check the Development Plan video further down the page.
...
Really big expansions are likely to be paid for while we also intend for some smaller free updates. If you have
pledged to to £80 tier or above you will receive all expansions for free.

So yes, if you backed the kickstarter at £80+ around that time then you should have an LEP applied to your account even if it does not show up as a discrete item on your downloadable products.

edit
Confirming LEP just applies in the Steam launcher.

I backed Elite Dangerous at the Premium Beta tier but I'm not sure how to actually install Odyssey in Steam. If I right-click Elite Dangerous in Steam and check its DLC tab, it doesn't show Odyssey. I just see Elite Dangerous: Game Key, ED: Horizons Season Pass, and ED: Horizons Season Pass Game Key.

If I launch Elite Dangerous from Steam, I see Odyssey in the launcher but it's grayed out.

Not sure what to do.

edit: I clicked on Odyssey in the launcher and then pressed the Enter key. Even though the Install button was grayed out, it seems that the launcher pulled down Odyssey's files and it's now playable.
