What I'm used to seeing: A jetliner maintaining a crab on landing until in the flare just above the runway, then "ruddering" to align with the centerline and dipping the upwind wheel slightly... once the aircraft has all its tires on the pavement, ailerons are rolled into the wind to level the aircraft and maintain centerline.

I have always thought this was normal for a jet around the world.

Landing sideways just looks painful.
