Be on speed by the gate
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out. These checks are the approach's score.

The rest of the report
The Boeing 737-800 taxied from the parking area to runway 26 at EETN Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport. The taxi-out phase lasted 13 minutes and covered 3 nm.
The aircraft commenced the departure roll on runway 26, achieving takeoff after traveling 5,571 ft (49 % of runway) with a liftoff speed of 150 kt. Local weather was temperature 77 °F, wind 8 kt at 280 °, crosswind 1 kt and headwind 8 kt.
Climb began overhead EETN Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport, ascending from 1,111 ft asl to 35,984 ft asl, an increase of 34,874 ft. The climb was completed in 22 minutes while covering 145 nm.
Enroute level cruise commenced 28 miles north of Ventspils, Latvia, and continued for 148 minutes, covering 1,095 nm.
Descent started 4 miles south of Palavas-les-Flots, France, descending from 35,999 ft asl to 10,984 ft asl, a decrease of 25,015 ft. This segment lasted 20 minutes and spanned 114 nm.
A subsequent level cruise began 3 miles south west of Santa Coloma de Farners, Catalunya, and lasted 2 minutes, covering 7 nm.
The next descent initiated 1 mile south east of Gualba de Dalt, Catalunya, with altitude decreasing from 10,638 ft asl to 1,336 ft asl, a loss of 9,302 ft. The phase took 8 minutes and covered 29 nm.
Final approach to runway 24R at LEBL Josep Tarr
The Boeing 737-800 conducted the final approach to runway 24R at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport with an unstable assessment at the 1,000 ft gate, being more than 5 kt below VREF. The aircraft descended from 1,364 ft agl to 46 ft agl in 109 seconds and was scored on the stabilisation gates; local weather was 73 °F with an 8 kt wind from 280°, including a 5 kt crosswind and a 7 kt headwind.
At threshold the height was reported as good and the threshold speed was slightly below target at 137 kt.
Touchdown occurred 1,470 ft down the runway at a speed of 129 kt, both rated good, with a touchdown rate of minus 242 fpm rated fair; runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The total landing distance was 4,586 ft, representing 40 % of the 11,416 ft runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect.
With a score of 95.1 % the landing was strong overall; maintaining VREF or higher by the 1,000 ft gate and refining flare technique to reduce the vertical rate will tighten the remaining variances.
