So how does a 737 manage to land on a carrier?

Same way a P-3 does...not at all.

Not all Naval air assets operate from aircraft carriers.

This thing has very long legs and can operate from coastal air fields (like a P-3).

Since P-3 Orions don't land on carriers... it's not likely that its replacement would either.
