Traffic Master Allure Ultra Click Plank question

Hi,
My room is 12' 3" by 13' which will cause waste as the boards are 3'. The 13' wall then opens into a much larger room
I am thinking of running a row along the 13' wall then attaching the tiles to that 1 strip for the 12' 3" wall. I will have 1 strip perpendicular to the other planks. When I stagger the cuts, I can use the end cuts in the larger room for less waste.
I have a question. I cannot see that it would make a difference having 1 strip perpendicular to all the other planks since it is a floating floor.
Should all the planks in this Allure Ultra run parallel to one another or does it make difference to have 1 plank perpendicular to all the others?

Thanks
Brian

I am not sure Allure is designed with that in mind. You have one sticky side and one not so sticky side How do you plan on mating them up on the perpendicular one?

Use the piece you cut off to start the next row. Otherwise, all your seams will line up.

Sam, I think he was wanting to turn the pattern and run perpendicular.
