AA EXP traveling PHL - ORD - HEL in J later this week. I have a ~4 hour connection in ORD. What i am reading from this thread is stay in T3 for AA Flagship lounge, and then just go to T5 to board AY 10.

I am planning on leaving from FL at T-60
Any other recommendations?
I do the ORD-HEL trip a few times a year (and then onto HKG, PEK or PVG) and I stay in T3 Flagship until about T-90. In T5, Finnair will stick you in the Air France catchall club, which isn't anything to write home about.
On thing to note - you'll need to get a Finnair boarding pass from their counter in T5. Several times I've gotten off of the bus in T5 at about T-60, only to hear my name being paged to the Finnair counter for a passport check and boarding pass.
