Make them higher level. 8th sounds good.
Warn them in advance that there are flying foes, so they need a way to hurt them. In our red hand game, our two most damage-dealing characters are a mounted archer and a fireball-happy wizard. A paladin on a griffon would do pretty well, though.
Take a cue from Star Wars SAGA, and let them heal themselves. As a swift action once per day they can heal HP equal to their Con score, or 1/4 their normal full HP, whichever is higher. Let them spend a full round action to recover from some negative status effects, like fear or being sickened.

I think I'll try asking them if they'd like to play two characters per player, but if that won't work, I'll reduce the number of enemies in big encounters (plus gestalt, higher level, etc.)
