Maybe those two seats are not mounted. Just slide them closer to the edge. Nothing prevents one from mounting theirs closer to the edge. Bolt them down and add seat belts. But the height might still be an issue for some people.
Our dinette was terribly uncomfortable to sit at until we replaced the cushions with better ones. What a night and day difference.
Maybe you could setup something temporary with make-shift cushions, and revert back after the trip.
Here is our original cushions. They were a soft foam that I bottomed-out on. Adding the issue that the cloth would not let us shift our weight without first lifting up our bodies.

Here are our replacement cushions. The foam is a little bit thinner which provides more elbow room. It is a much more dense foam and is marketed as memory foam. The vinyl surface makes for easy entry and exit and for the shifting of weight. The change in our comfort was remarkable.
