A Jetblue Airbus A320-200, registration N630JB performing flight B6-485 from Boston,MA to Los Angeles,CA (USA) with 150 people on board, was enroute at FL340 about 140nm southeast of Minneapolis,MN (USA) when the crew reported fumes in the cockpit and decided to divert to Minneapolis. On final approach to Minneapolis the crew advised they still had a smell "back there" but no smoke, they did not expect an evacuation but wanted to turn off runway 30L to the right onto what appeared to be a de-icing pad for checks by emergency services, which was approved. The aircraft landed safely on runway 30L, vacated the runway and later taxied to the apron with emergency services in trail.
