I am concerned about the suite cases.
Will I need to pick these up from the carousel area & re introduce them at the onward flight booking desk, or will they be put on the plane to Orlando automatically.
Being over 72 years of age this could be time consuming being that the ongoing flight leaves in just over an hour after arriving from Alicante.
Would appreciate any advice or experiences on this matter.

Welcome to Flyertalk. If your entire trip was booked as a single ticket, then shouldn't have to claim and recheck your luggage. If it was booked as two separate tickets (roundtrip Alicante - Gatwick, and a separate roundtrip from Gatwick to Orlando), you might have to recheck your luggage, particularly if you're traveling on two unrelated carriers.
