This will be a 2 award situation anyway, so OP can stay in PHL as long as he wants.

Sorry if I'm mistaken here
No, that doesn't apply in this context. Coming from Alaska, one pretty much has no option except to route via ConUS (specifically, FAI-SEA can't be avoided). For the purposes of routing rules, ConUS is not considered a third region in this case.
