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.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
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 19 at EYVI Vilnius International Airport in 7 minutes, covering approximately 1 nm.
During the departure roll on runway 19, the aircraft accelerated to a liftoff speed of 153 kt and became airborne after using 4,244 ft of runway, representing 52 % of the available length. Ambient conditions were 36 °F with a wind of 9 kt from 279°, including an 8 kt crosswind component and a 2 kt headwind.
The climb commenced 1 mile south of EYVI, with the airplane climbing from 1,626 ft asl to 33,885 ft asl, a gain of 32,259 ft achieved in 19 minutes while covering 122 nm.
Level cruise began 2 miles south-west of Stare Juchy, Poland, and persisted for 135 minutes, during which the aircraft flew 968 nm.
Descent was initiated 39 miles south of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, France, descending from 34,001 ft asl to 1,055 ft asl, a loss of 32,947 ft in 27 minutes and traversing 134 nm.
The final approach to runway 24R at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport was conducted from the north-east, on a heading of 245.0° at 4 nm and 1,038 ft agl.
Landing on runway 24R, which is 11,416 ft long, was executed with a threshold speed of 139 kt. Touchdown occurred 1,131 ft down the runway at 132 kt, with a vertical speed of minus 172 fpm and perfect alignment. Local weather reported 34 °F, wind 8 kt from 280°, a 5 kt crosswind and a 7 kt headwind. The total landing distance recorded was 3,674 ft, equivalent to 32 % of the runway.
Runway rollout alignment remained perfect as the aircraft decelerated to a stop after the touchdown.
The aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 3 minutes, covering less than 1 nm.
In total, the flight covered 1,231 nm, took 193, and consumed 17,196 lbs of fuel.
The Boeing 737-800 entered the final approach to runway 24R at LEBL from the north-east on a heading of 245.0° at 4 nm and 1,038 ft AGL. The approach was assessed as stabilised at the 1,000 ft gate, with gear, flaps, sink rate, glideslope and centreline all within limits, and the aircraft maintained the prescribed flight path in the prevailing wind of 8 kt from 280° (crosswind 5 kt, headwind 7 kt) and temperature of 34 °F.
At threshold the aircraft presented a good threshold height and the threshold speed was good at 139 kt, indicating that the flare was initiated at the appropriate altitude and speed for the aircraft type.
Touchdown occurred 1,131 ft down the runway at a speed of 132 kt, with a touchdown rate of minus 172 fpm, and runway touchdown alignment was perfect, confirming a precise flare and touchdown point.
The rollout covered a total landing distance of 3,674 ft, representing 32 % of the 11,416 ft runway, and runway rollout alignment was perfect, demonstrating controlled deceleration and centreline tracking to the end of the runway.
Maintain the current stabilised-approach technique and fine-tune flare timing to keep the touchdown point consistently near the aim point, which will preserve the excellent speed and rate margins while further reducing landing distance.
