OSLO, April 28 (Reuters) - Ryanair RYA.I group CEO Michael O'Leary said the risk of a jet fuel supply shortage in Europe due to the Middle East conflict is receding and that fuel companies have told the airline they see no risk of potential disruption until the end of June.

"A month ago we were saying we're all fine until the end of May. The fuel companies are now saying they're seeing no supply disruption risk until the end of June," O'Leary told Reuters in an interview on Tuesday, citing a conference call with all of its suppliers across Europe on Monday.
