Some good stuff already above. I'll just add to check OFP for what runway has been planned for departure and approach - with automated flight planning widely in use these days, OFP might not match the reality, and you might have to adjust the figures a bit.

Also a good idea to think of extra fuel in minutes, rather than weight - 30 minutes of extra taxi or 30 minutes of weather avoidance will result in a widely different figure.
