I'm an avionics technician. Pro tip: put the pilots headset on, they probably already have at least one comm set to ATC already. On the yoke or nearby there should be a button that says PTT (Push-to-Talk). Press it then ask tower how to land it. A lot of planes can do most of the landing for you with minimal input but they'll walk you through the process.

my GF asked me the 747 question and i answered "yeah, probably" and she started laughing and couldnt believe i thought that. but like people have done it. as long as you can get guided by a guy over the radio and remain calm you can "land" the plane. And by land, i dont mean landing gear out, safe landing in an airport, i mean you find a clear enough area to crash as safely as possible.

There have been 7 recorded instances of a pilot being incapacitated and a passenger making radio contact with an air traffic controller who tried to tell them how to land the plane. All 7 landings were successful.
Most of these smaller planes as most commercial jets have copilots who could land the plane in an emergency. Said commercial jets also have more advanced autopilot systems that would make it even easier to land the plane.
