Keep the wings level on final
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.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 2,341 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 559 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Boeing 737-800 began with a 5-minute taxi from the parking area to the runway at FMEE Gillot. The departure roll on runway 14 covered a distance of 1,197 meters, which was 55% of the total runway length. The liftoff speed during takeoff was 152 knots, with local weather conditions showing a temperature of 23°C and a wind speed of 6 knots coming from 129°, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 6 knots.
The enroute climb started over Sainte-Marie in Réunion, ascending from 1,208 feet above sea level to 33,218 feet, covering a distance of 183 nautical miles in 26 minutes. The climb resulted in an increase of 32,010 feet in altitude. The aircraft then entered a level cruise phase, which began at a location with a latitude of -17.8266 and a longitude of 55.5622. The cruise lasted for 90 minutes and covered a distance of 714 nautical miles.
The descent phase commenced 69 miles south of Takamaka in the Seychelles, descending from 32,600 feet above sea level to 2,072 feet, covering a distance of 80 nautical miles in 19 minutes. This descent resulted in a decrease of 30,528 feet in altitude. The landing took place on runway 13 at FSIA Seychelles Intl, with the runway length being 2,341 meters. The height at the threshold was 36 feet above ground level, and the speed at the threshold was 135 knots.
The touchdown of the aircraft occurred 558 meters from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 122 knots and a vertical speed indicator reading of -223 feet per minute. Local weather conditions at the time of landing showed a temperature of 28°C and a wind speed of 8 knots coming from 121°, resulting in no crosswind and a headwind of 8 knots. The total landing distance covered was 1,347 meters, which accounted for 58% of the total runway length.
After landing, the aircraft took 1 minute to taxi from the runway to the parking area, covering less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance for the journey was 988 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 155 minutes. The aircraft consumed 7,218 kilograms of fuel throughout the duration of the flight.
