Question Landing the big ones.

Im currently doing a PPL and the other day was doing crosswinds. Basically im being taught to crab in, then in the flare, straighten with ruder, and opposite alieron. Just wondering if its a similar proceedure in the airliners, ( i think it isn't) or are they less affected by crosswind?? Secondly, is the flare on any landing the same as a light plane, or does it really just fly onto the ground? If any one could give some info that would be great.
cheers
