The issue with booking all with one airline is whether they have a code share partner who will provide the NY-MCO leg. Most UK carriers wouldn’t provide that routing and you'd have to rely on the partner for that leg (Delta for Virgin, and AA for BA?)
If you buy the leg separately using a US low cost carrier, you would need to buy extra baggage allowance. If all bought on one ticket, you’d probably retain your full baggage allowance.

Which airport is better for direct?
Gatwick and Heathrow would give you more choice. You can get direct from Manchester but less options means the prices are often higher.

If you did book indirect from Birmingham using Aer Lingus they do TSA pre-clearance in Dublin which means that you get off the plane in America like a domestic passenger (i.e. no queues at immigration) which is definitely a bonus.

I’ll be taking a 9yr old and 8yr old that have never been on holiday before (think they’ve had 1 week in skegness since they were born) so I’d rather get a direct flight because I don’t know how they will handle the take offs and landings etc.

I think you’re too early to get a full range of prices yet as most are released 11 months before. You’ll get more options and (probably) better prices if you waited until September or October.

Yeah but I want to get the free Disney dining.

Maybe I’ll just book the hotel and tickets then look at flights later

That’s a good idea. I’ve not had to do it myself but, from what I’ve read, Disney are quite good at changing reservation dates if you need to change by a few days to match your flights. I usually book direct with Disney and find their prices and customer service great.
