There's no luck involved in anything. They had the length to land on or they would have gone off the end. They didn't go off the end, ergo they had sufficient runway to land.
Had they landed at the correct airport, then it would be luck they didn't go off the side, didn't have a fire, etc.

If you're going to include luck in the equation, then you need to factor in devine intervention as well.
