AUTOMATISEERAIENT is the longest word which contains the five vowels in reverse alphabetical order. Other such words are RUDOIERA and TUTOIERA.
There is only one common word in English that has five vowels in a row: queueing.
The longest alternating words beginning with a vowel are possibly the 16-letter adenolipomatosis (a glandular condition), aluminosilicates (a class of chemical compounds containing aluminium and silicon) and anatomicomedical (relating to anatomy and medicine).

Theopneustia (an obscure word for Christian divine inspiration) alternates pairs of vowels and consonants.

APERIODIQUE is the longest word containing the vowels in alphabetical order.
The word "abstemiously" has all 6 vowels in alphabetical order, as does "abstentiously", "adventitiously", and "facetiously."
