iCal Sync truncating the last day

We are experiencing issues when Google iCal sync'ed bookings are truncated by one day in the AirBnB calendar. The Google calendar has a specific timezone set. Does AirBnB require a timezone? Has anyone else experiences this problem?

Further investigation has proved that AirBnB does not honour Daylight Savings correctly. The Google Calendar is GMT+11 whereas the AirBnB profile is GMT+10 resulting in truncating a day from the iCal bookings. If the booking is extended by one hour, it is represented correctly in AirBnB. So, how does AirBnB account for Daylight Savings in their calendar?
