+## Baggage Notes
+
+Jeager Baggage is represented as multiple headers where the names are carrier dependent. For this reason, they are omitted from the `fields` method. This behavior should be taken into account if your application relies on the `fields` functionality. See the [specification][fields-spec-url] for more details.
