The A330 flies like a glider compared to other jets I've flown, so I don't see any reason to deviate from the tried and true technique of closing the thrust levers as the flare is commenced
Hot and/or high ops with a gusty head wind. Just to have enough energy to have THREE smooth touch downs. If not, then you might want to watch your nose.
