You will then proceed to terminal 3 for your next flight, go through security, and onto your gates. 2 hrs should be enough time.
On the return, your flights should all be from Terminal 3. So when you land from SJU, you will just proceed to the gate for your next flight - no need to collect bags or go back through security. 2.5 hours will be more than enough time as there really isn't much to do in the terminal.
Thanks a lot for your answers. You are right, SJU-FLL is a domestic flight. I entered the wrong airport code, it's PUJ! And of course Dominican Republic is not a domestic flight. I don't know what I was thinking about! Anyway I just checked it and flight times are almost same (just about ~5 minutes difference when leaving from FLL to PUJ and vice versa).
That changes a lot the situation...
