Have them take it into ground effect to see the proper flare height, then go around for a landing. You'll find the airline pilot is typically very adaptive and will appreciate being reminded of these "generalizations" before flight, rather than during.
That's very useful advice which I shall adopt forthwith. Many thanks.
