This is why I limited my comment to the OP and a Finnair-Finnair connection.

Airlines do not make any difference in HEL even though they call part of the terminal as "Terminal 1" and bigger part "Terminal 2". "Terminals" are connected airside and only difference is checkin-areas. Sometimes flights even get assigned a gate in a wrong terminal but only consequence for it is a little longer walk to the gate. All flights from Schengen, EU and US arrive to same sterile area that has passport control but no security in a middle. And all departure gates are in that same sterile area.
