Narrative:
On approach to jan; approach cleared us for a visual to runway 34R; which is the usual landing runway for our company. After the handoff to the tower controller; we were cleared to land on runway 34L. At that time we were approximately 3 to 4 mile final; aligned with the centerline for runway 34R. We called for clarification/confirmation of our landing clearance; and the tower controller confirmed we were cleared to land on runway 34L. As we were too close for a side step maneuver; we advised the tower that we needed to perform a right 360 degree turn to roll out for runway 34L. Tower cleared us to perform the 360 degree turn. We did so; rolling out on a normal final for runway 34L; and performed a normal landing and rollout. There was no other traffic in the immediate area; and no other conflicts arose.
